Story of a woman fighting to survive in a man’s word, fighting internalisied misogyny and learning how to connect with other women

It doesn’t have much plot, more stream of consciousness as we follow the main character. 

Joan is not a likable character but definitely is the star of her own life. She reminds me of Esther from The Bell Jar or the main character of A Year Of Rest And Relaxation. 
Her complicated and layered past relationship cast a shadow on all other  connections with other people.
