Sigrid nunez style of writing
I love Sigrid nunez! The plot is vague but it’s her writing about random thoughts and musings which are interesting and thought provoking. I couldn’t get the physical copy of the book, else I would have enjoyed reading it more than listening to the audible. Lovely cover and will surely get a copy once it’s released in uk. Narration was flawless but it’s just one of those books which you should read instead.

Meditative, intellectual and witty novel.
Well read version of Nunez’s novel about unlikely triangle of woman writer, college student and parrot living under lockdown. Creative-critical discussion of writers, writing and life.
