If Nobody Speaks of Remarkable Things

If Nobody Speaks of Remarkable Things - Jon McGregor When I first picked it up, I had no idea what to expect. The first few lines were surprising, jarring, and I put the book down for a few days. The prose style threw me off, and I wasn't sure I would like it. I must say, however, that I am really glad I decided to return to it and to keep reading. Different, but something I definitely liked. I would suggest this book to a friend.
