Milkman
by Anna Burns
Milkman Anna Burns(1/16/2019)
I expected much more from this book given the prize. It was difficult to read. I found no conclusion to the patter of conversations and endless ramblings that were seemingly in the head of the main character. It didn’t seem to draw any conclusions, it seemed the confusion of …more conversation was never ending, therefore I had to let it go and couldn’t finish. I would not recommend.(less)
