The book “Little Rot” follows a couple’s relationship at the start of the book, but quickly separates as they break-up and start to act on their own desires outside of a monogamous relationship. I thought I wouldn’t like it at first because it seemed to jump to other characters and their desires, but it met back to our main people again within a few chapters. The descriptions were wonderfully written. It had a lot of exploration on the darker sides of our desires, too, and is not something I would recommend to everyone. I loved this book and think it was a strong piece of literature, but it is a more mature book with some difficult imagery.
Three words that describe this book: desires, relationships, humanity
You might want to pick this book up if: If you like work from this author already. If you are interested in drama. If you want something akin to thriller but focusing more on human connections and ethics.
