Outline 'Cusk has glimpsed the central truth of modern life.' Patricia Lockwood

Rachel Cusk’s writing is unlike any book I’ve read so far. At first, it was hard for me to get into it, but after giving it a second try I couldn’t put it down. This novel portrays human relationships and the ways people are intertwined in such a raw, honest way. It explores the importance of how a story is told—who is telling it, and whether another person would describe the exact same situation in a completely different way.
