me he pasado el libro diciendo “qué lista la tía, qué lista” y es que es eso. sus agudos diagnósticos del panorama literario actual me han hecho reír (y sonrojar al saberme a veces uno de esos insoportables personajes pretenciosos), aunque el final me ha dejado un poco desconcertada.

The opening chapter is a little trite. Everything is a drug. Coffee, prayer, music

Americanah was a better exploration of the US impositions of race on people from other nations who do not recognise the same principles

Meh.
I went into this thinking the author had a lot to say in this satire but whenever she started approaching some concepts and criticisms, it remained on a surface level.
