Read in November, 2010

Coming straight after Oscar Wao, this book had a lot to live up to. It's a strange novel, in that there was never a point I really felt I enjoyed it. But it was sinister and encompassing, and very interesting. It's narrated by George, a failed cop turned private detective, as he tries to deal with a serious crime committed by one of his clients, and his personal feelings towards her. It's confessional, it's complex and confused, and undoubtably human. Another really good read.
