Book Review: Reproduction by Ian Williams
Reproduction by Ian Williams, winner of the 2019 Giller Prize is a quirky read. Aside from this book being PAINFULLY LONG, I enjoyed it. It plays with lots of things: format, timelines, even phrasing. That being said, I’m a reader who doesn’t like freaky-deaky experimentation in my books, but I still found this story readable….

Those chocolates are really beginning to annoy me now! I’m simply not getting enough vicarious pleasure from it! I demand a Santa!!

Wow, what an interesting and unique way to voice eating disorders. It took me a bit to get there, but it is very powerful.
What a beautiful conversation about this story. This is a nice video, Anne. I’m super disappointed in the chocolate calendar. The same thing happened last year with the same chocolates repeatedly. It almost seems like a rip-off.
right? So frustrating. And thank you!
