This is a short book - 130 pages in my edition - and very readable, in a compulsive, car crash kind of a way. We follow an unnamed narrator on a move to the city and through a destructive relationship with Finn, an older woman (who has a girlfriend who's often mentioned but never appears). It's a fragmented, sometimes incoherent, narrative, though it has a very strong sense of direction.
It was well-written, but sharp and rather sneering; I think I'm glad it wasn't very much longer, because I wouldn't have wanted to spend much more time with these characters.
