Things I Don't Want to Know

Things I Don't Want to Know by Deborah Levy

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


*** Possible Spoilers ***

The best thing about this book is that it's short. In addition, the author has a good command of the English language. This book was labeled 'biography' and I learned some details about the life of the author but not a lot. The best part was a long flashback describing her early years in South Africa under the apartheid regime. That was interesting. The rest was little more than neurotic whining. I won't recommend it but I won't say it's terrible either. It's pretty much in the middle and I'm certain there are more interesting books to read.
