The First Bad Man
The first novel by artist/filmmaker Miranda July entitled 'The First Bad Man' is un-put-downable. It's told from the first person perspective, narrated by the central character 'Cheryl'.
Cheryl works for a woman’s self-defense company that promotes feminine self-empowerment. But she’s a psychological punch bag.
You can't help but ask "but why does she let him/ her/ them do that to her?"
Having said that, the book is warm, funny and compelling. I recommend it for it's sharp combination of dark/macabre and everyday weirdness.
