A review by jstilts
Mostly Hero by Anna Burns
Did not finish book. Stopped at 14%.
Written as an almost stream-of-consciousness from the third-person-perspective of the narrator, this conceit doesn't bring the book any life or novelty as it seems to be deliberately charting a childish simple supervillain-noir tale with no interesting characters, ideas, themes nor even some kind of direction to a plot.
Only 18 pages in and it's too tiresome to continue this not short enough short story - I peeked ahead and it seems to carry on in this tedious fashion throughout. No idea who the audience is for this book, but I'm not among them.
