Pond by Claire-Louise Bennett

“Where is my f***ing sense of eventuality actually?”

Fiction — four stars. Pond is a 210-page book about a pond. The book is a collection of ramblings in the best way possible. Each story is from the perspective of a woman living alone near the pond. From her stove to a wooden sign on the shore, Bennett allows us to dive into her head as she word vomits at us. The only thing I can say is that it’s about a pond, and you should read it.
