Once you get the hang of the dialect, it reads like Joyce-ian Shakespeare. Captures in amazing texture and detail; a young woman struggling to navigate the generations-spanning dysfunctional turmoil of “the Troubles”. For me, the most compelling aspect was the spoken dialect - poetic in construction and deployments. The fact that joy and happiness could only be expressed through a double negative powerfully illustrates a constrained world where paramilitaries ensure that all of society at large watches and passes judgement, often fatally, on every action taken. Paranoia and second guessing go beyond just being useful coping skills and become the defining feature of a tangled and dark social fabric.

Boring. I wanted to read Milkman because it received so many great reviews and won the Man Booker prize. The entire book is one long stream consciousness I forced myself to finish it but it was a real slog to get through. Really boring and repetitive.

So bored. I couldn’t get into this story at all. Very slow, and the style was painful.

Milkman. Doesn’t deserve a star at all. It is so scattered in its delivery that the story is next to impossible to follow. To much work for read!

Brilliant. I love this writing. If you read Almost Hero then you’ll have a good sense of her style. This one is more serious, perhaps, but I find them both equally unique and insightful. It’s brilliant the way she lays out the social, cultural and psychological landscape and has the protagonist contend with it all by way of her thinking process - as the voice in her own head, so to speak - all while producing a subtle reflection on literature (writing, thinking) itself. Genius!
