All Fours by Miranda July
5.0
challenging dark emotional funny reflective medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes

I am not a woman, nor a parent, but being of a certain age, I found myself instantly connecting with the games one’s brain will play as it struggles to adjust to the physical changes and realities of midlife.

I can see why All Fours is so polarizing. It’s absurd and explicit and grotesque. But, it’s also funny and insightful and touching. It makes you feel even if you don’t like all of its parts.
