I read The Unworthy in one sitting. It is a brief, tense little novel set in a commune in a dystopian, seemingly post-apocalyptical world. I have to admit this was quite a big let down for me. I was hoping for the same caliber of work as Tender Is The Flesh, but I found this work to be missing that thing that makes it so delightfully uncomfortable and eerie. The setting is very reminiscent of Handmaid's Tale meets The Road, which should be a recipe for success, but instead just felt like an attempt to say the most jarring thing without actually holding substance, in my opinion. I think ultimately the book was simply too 2-dimensional and my lack of finding anything to say about this novel speaks volumes in and of itself.
