In the Cut - Susanna Moore

filed under reviews: fiction

Detachment, isolation, despair, poetry, sadistic murder, erotica. The prose is evocative, the narrative disturbing. I would have been able to buy into this more easily if Moore had not outreached herself in terms of the main character's academic research, the details and context of which do not ring true.
