About this listen

Alma and her family live a life close to the land. Then, one night, she abruptly leaves it all behind. This is a propulsive, funny, and thought-provoking debut about a woman in isolation whose mind - fueled by capitalism, motherhood, and the search for meaningful art - attempts to betray her.

First novel

All in all, I enjoyed this short novel. I found the first passages of the book off putting but when I persisted with
The story I became more interested. It is a story about obsession and so unsettling. It is also a story about homecoming and so rewarding. I would like to see more by this author. It was too short!
