Literary snobbery and other thoughts by Chris Blocker

Review: Satin Island

Satin Island: A novel - Tom McCarthy

Someday I'm going to see this novel on a bookshelf and say, “I think I've read that. It looks familiar. And yet I can't quite say what that book was about. I think there was... no, I don't remember. It seemed to be getting at something big, but... no, I don't recall. Maybe it was a different book I read. Maybe I've never actually read that one. But it sure does look familiar.”

 

Someday... is today.
