My rating: 1 of 5 stars
I give up – just cannot finish this stream of consciousness type of book. There are vague political and religious dissensions that are incomprehensible to a non-Irish person. “Maybe-boyfriend” personifies Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle at the quantum level. Other non-committal names include “tablets girl”, “nuclear boy” and “Somebody McSomebody”. There is a gruesome description of a stomach turning mass canicide. The ‘Milkman’ has nothing to do with the dairy industry, whereas the real milkman – taking orders for milk and delivering it by his milk van – is called “the man who did not love anybody.”
