Sorrow and Bliss
Sorrow and Bliss by Meg Mason is a dazzling, distinctive novel from a boldly talented writer. It is spiky, sharp, intriguingly dark and tender, full of pathos, fury, and wit. Fans of Sally Rooney, Taffy Brodesser-Akner, and Fleabag will enjoy this.
The protagonist of this novel is Martha. She is aware that something is wrong with her, but she is unsure what it is. Patrick, her husband, believes she is fine. He claims that everyone has something to mind; the key is to keep going.
Before they married, Martha stated that she did not want to have children. He stated that he didn't mind either way because he has loved her since he was fourteen and that making her happy is all that matters, despite the fact that he does not appear to be capable of doing so.
It doesn't really matter by the time Martha discovers what's wrong. It is too late for her to obtain the one and only thing she has ever desired. Or perhaps it will turn out that you can stop loving someone and start over if you can find something else to want.
Meg Mason's novel is a dark, funny, and moving coming-of-age story for anyone who has ever felt different.
