jakej 's review for:

The Wasp Factory by Iain Banks
3.5
challenging dark slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

More naturalistic than I suspected - much of the book is the protagonist moving about the island, reflecting on his past and present place in the world.
