my year of rest and relaxtion

this was definetly not for me. like what was the point? or the meaning of it all? that she slept for 6 months and all of a sudden was a better person? clearly i am missing some deeper meaning but i just didn’t understand the purpose of this book. as someone who struggles with their mental health i’m just confused cause i mean yeah sure the depiction of depression is good but then what like sleeping for 6 months will fix it? is this supposed to be a metaphor or something? also as soon as i heard the year 2001 and the characters that worked in the trade centre i guessed that would be the ending but again like what was the point of that? it served no purpose in the plot? again i’m just very confused and this was definitely not a book i understand the hype around Show more Show less
