Mechanical Swans Make Me Feel Stupid
I hate it when books make me feel stupid, and I just finished one that did just that.
It's called The Chemistry of Tears, by Peter Carey, and is a two-time Booker Prize winner. Perhaps that should have warned me off, but no.

Definitely lots of promise.
But I couldn't quite wrap my brain around it. I just don't think I'm smart enough.
Oh literary fiction. You are such a tool for humility.
