crabbygirl reviewed The Interestings by Meg Wolitzer
Review of 'The Interestings' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
meg wolitzer just 'gets' me. her book, The 10 Year Nap spoke direct to me at a time that i was living a tandem life to her main character, and now she's written an arching novel that takes her teen protagonist, Jules, to her mid 50s - like a manual for me :)
reading this book i remembered the freshness and intensity that was 15. it's made me re-exam my current attitude about art with respect to dd's academic record and possible career outcomes.
i listened to the book on CD but i'll have to go back and read it. there were so many quotables, so many nuggets of truth i want to hold on to.
