Set in an un-named city but with an astonishing, breath-shorteningly palpable sense of time and place Milkman is a tale of gossip and hearsay, silence and deliberate deafness. The story of inaction with enormous consequences and decisions that are never made, but for which people are judged and punished.
Middle sister is our protagonist. She is busy attempting to keep her mother from discovering her nearly-boyfriend and to keep everyone in the dark about her encounter with milkman (which she herself for the life of her cannot work out how it came about). But when first brother-in-law, who of course had sniffed it out, told his wife, her first sister, to tell her mother to come and have a talk with her, middle sister becomes ‘interesting’. The last thing she ever wanted to be. To be interesting is to be noticed and to be noticed is dangerous…
Original as commented by the Booker Prize judges. But if I were to use a word to describe it, I would choose “mentally-pollutive(I really don’t know what is the counterpart to 精神汙染 in English)”, the feeling mitoses of brainless bacteria or the Bobunemimimmi section in Pop Team Epic have given me. This is really not a derogatory description.
评分获奖是政治大过文学?主角的日常生活对我们来说是分裂地区的奇景。

评分It can be well presented on screen by BoJack Horseman team, with both edgy and perpetual topics, absurd and visceral.
评分读起来还是蛮艰难的,句子很绕,在火车上一边念一边打瞌睡。属于rewarding但是不inviting的那一类书。但风格确实独特到没有办法拿任何书去和它比。
