classic Atwood's work with every brilliant element. the ending seems rushed in comparison to the snail-paced beginning. art-if-act? lol

like most good novels, middlesex is complex, engrossing, rich. it's about a family's journey from the eyes of a hermaphrodite calliope/cal. epic, racial, awakening, and, amazing

scary and bleak setting in an unnamed city, in search of day-to-day uncertainty and miserable existence. inferior to 'the road'

thought-provoking and well crafted, this nice novel has an absorbing plot but not moving eventually, mirror to american pastoral in some sense

unique and courageous memoir without too much judgment. the title glass castle is very pertinent. ain't we angry when getting disillusioned?

Paul Auster, as expected, asks questions without giving us an answer. destiny is something we choose; fate is something that happens to us. but what's the difference?

a grim, nihilistic but down-to-earth criticism of hippy and other spiritualistic parasites. it successfully raises my doubts about the differences between freedom and unpredictability

天堂酒吧-Last Orders
a journey to scatter a friend's ashes into the sea, a journey concealed somewhere in memories, betrayals, reprieve, and all unspoken emotions. difficult to get into among narrators
