I heard that you were on the Booker Shortlist That you were a strong favourite, and winner now I heard, that you’re a dystopia I guess you’d gave me things Like others did to me Good book, why sentences so long Either finish the sentence Or start a paragraph I hate to DNF you like this, early unexpected but I Couldn’t keep reading, couldn’t fight it I had hoped you see my face And that you let me go, tell me it’s over Nevermind, I’ll go find some book like you I wish nothing but the best for you Forget me please, I will forget you, Sometimes it lasts when reading sometimes it HURTS instead… I read 30 pages before giving up. Maybe my English failed. Maybe my intelligence. But trying to read this book was a literary torture for me. I kept reading the same, long sentences over and over, and nothing made sense. There is an unknown city and some unknown people, a #Milkman, who we know nothing about, other than sensing he’s of a wicked sort. Then there is sisters, and Brother in Laws? The whole thing just didn’t make sense. Dystopia turned to Hysteria for me. I’ve read somewhere that this book is about Irish conflict, maybe my lack of knowledge about that failed me in this book… I am only a poor Turkish-turned-British, and been living in the UK last 7.5 years…Wasn’t around here when that happened guys!!! Obviously I know the conflict and why, but I don’t know the details, and the Irish culture… I felt lost in this book. #manbooker #bookstagram #bookish #bookobsessed #bookworms #bibliophiles #booknerds #bookdragons #bookaholics #bookdepository #bookaddicts #shelfie #bookblogger #booknerdigans #kimmersbooks #booksforever #booksbooksandmorebooks #amreading #booklovers #bookgram #bookaholic #bookblog #booktography #readersofinstagram
