mlawton, People are absolutely polarized on whether they loved or hated this 2023 Booker Prize winner. I loved it, but I listened to the excellently performed audiobook, so I was spared the criticisms of excessively lengthy paragraphs and non-obvious dialogue demarcations.
As for the story, the slide into a totalitarian state and the heart-wrenching repercussions for an ordinary family ensnared in the fallout is really well done. It is brutal. #bookstodon
