trying to get into elfriede jelinek's women as lovers but just can't do it. i can't read it, can't finish it but equally i can't let it go. unremitting, relentlesly bleak, reading it is like getting punched in the face. tim parks has some suggestions on this. whatever, i can't get into it, i can't let it go.
paula has been taught to assess who is grabbing her there between the legs. is it someone with or without a future.
