Oligarchy by Scarlett Thomas

'Oligarchy' by Scarlett Thomas is the first book for quite a while that I've finished without a struggle. Maybe finished at all?!

I've always enjoyed her prose and themes and I'm enjoying catching up with her books after a couple of decades. I re-read 'Our Tragic Universe' and 'The End of Mr Y' last year and realised they'd been more impactful on me than I'd given them credit for at the time.

I'm not here to do a full book review, but I liked 'Oligarchy' a lot. It has a very distinct atmosphere that borders on the Ballardian.
