Coventry by Rachel Cusk

I normally really enjoy essay collections, especially when there is a good mixture of literary criticism, current events, personal life and some humor. That is my personal preference and there are authors who I feel hit the mark really well. This collection hit some of those marks. The literary criticism section is especially strong with a good mix of current and classic and some great points made. However, I felt that the author also takes herself too seriously and some of the essays felt pretentious. Overall, this was a mixed read for me. I received a digital copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
