Life Without Children

 Book 46 of my 2023 Reading Challenge
read from June 8 - 10

Life Without Children
by Roddy Doyle

My Opinion
3 stars

This is the kind of book that makes me feel dumb, like there is some sort of symbolism that I'm not getting that would make the stories clearer.

I liked the author's writing and setting all the stories in the pandemic added to the swirling uncertainty of the characters' feelings but I also finished almost every story unsure of what actually happened.

So I liked the book but also don't feel I can confidently said I read it.  It felt more like I was scanning English words but not fully understanding their meaning.
