Historia
Miranda July’s second novel confirms the brilliance of her unique approach to fiction. With July’s wry voice, perfect comic timing, unabashed curiosity about human intimacy, and palpable delight in pushing boundaries, All Fours tells the story of one woman’s quest for a new kind of freedom. Part absurd entertainment, part tender reinvention of the sexual, romantic, and domestic life of a forty-five-year-old female artist, All Fours transcends expectation while excavating our beliefs about life lived as a woman.

i knew the narrator was bad but WOW
Revisado: 04-23-24
The narrator they use for the first 2/3 of the book cannot do any accents, nor can she even do male voices (it’s a low bar, i’ve never heard a professional female narrator who couldn’t pull off male characters before) and she’s covering a wide cast of characters on an international mission. Truly whoever produced this audiobook straight up hated the author.

very thought provoking, although the plot sometimes suffered under the weight of the multiple ideas being explored, it was still an incredible read and an ambitious piece of work

Historia
A landslide has closed the Korowai Pass on New Zealand’s South Island, cutting off the town of Thorndike and leaving a sizable farm abandoned. The disaster presents an opportunity for Birnam Wood, an undeclared, unregulated, sometimes-criminal, sometimes-philanthropic guerrilla gardening collective that plants crops wherever no one will notice. For years, the group has struggled to break even. To occupy the farm at Thorndike would mean a shot at solvency at last. But the enigmatic American billionaire Robert Lemoine also has an interest in the place.

From the legendary actor and best-selling author: a novel about the making of a star-studded, multimillion-dollar superhero action film...and the humble comic books that inspired it. Funny, touching, and wonderfully thought-provoking, while also capturing the changes in America and American culture since World War II.

It’s Tom Hanks, not David Foster Wallace
Revisado: 05-11-23
They say “write what you know” and Tom Hanks knows how to make a movie, so that’s what he wrote about. It’s fine and fun, but be warned that every character is weirdly obsessed with coffee and they ALL refer to show business as “the business of show”.
He knows how to craft dialogue though!
