a very relatable book for all those who have felt misunderstood and lost in life, but in this case the author takes those experiences to the extremes. the main character is severely impaired by trauma, resulting in very poor social skills that he tries to hide with faked humour and drunk cheerfulness. in reality, he has been disqualified as a human being. what is he then?
i have loved this book for two reasons: some sentences were so well written to make me cry and the description of the sexual assault//cheating scene made me feel such an empathy and sadness never felt before. it is the ultimate betrayal. it made me realise i am a human being, even though sometimes i feel detached from my sense of self. it made me appreciate life in all its forms and it made me feel not alone in this world.
