I picked this up because the author received a lot of accolades for her writing - a GRANTA award, I think. As expected, her writing is solid and gives me a good sense of what's going on around her and in her head; however, the writing is prolix (used purposely) and there's no getting around that. I couldn't get around it, anyway. I had to abandon it.
Rosa and I had zero in common and I couldn't even form a tenuous connection with her. Too much of a navel-gazer.
