I love Katie Kitamura's attention to interiority. Many passages are repetitive as a narrator tries to untangle her thoughts or goes over scenes to re-interpret what has happened -- her writing mirrors the repetition of thought. This book is a tricky one and has an intriguing premise: a man claims he is the son of a woman who says that is impossible. A book about performance, missed opportunities, motherhood. Kitamura is brilliant.
