List of the Lost
List of the Lost | Morrissey
6 posts | 4 read | 2 to read
'Beware the novelist . . . intimate and indiscreet . . . pompous, prophetic airs . . . here is the fact of fiction . . . an American tale where, naturally, evil conquers good, and none live happily ever after, for the complicated pangs of the empty experiences of flesh-and-blood human figures are the reason why nothing can ever be enough. To read a book is to let a root sink down. List of the lost is the reality of what is true battling against what is permitted to be true.' MorrisseyPenguin Books is delighted to announce the forthcoming publication of List of the Lost, Morrissey's extraordinary novel, on 24 September.

There‘s no way sugarcoat it. This book was awful. I started it two other times and couldn‘t get past the first 5 or so pages. This time I was determined to power through and I did manage to finish it. It‘s as terrible as the reviews said it is.

Idiosyncratic at times, but not a bad experiment.

Oh, Morrissey. I can't bring myself to read this. I'm holding out for an audiobook of it narrated by Charles Dance. #BulbousSalutation

LeahBergen @Hobbinol And the quote goes on to mention his "bulbous salutation". I saved the more delicate sensibilities on Litsy by omitting THAT from the above photo. ?? 7y
Hobbinol 😳I don't think I can ever build another snowman without thinking about it. (Thanks alot😑) Is it that funny/bad all the way through? You always come up with best/worst stuff!😆 7y
LeahBergen @Hobbinol I haven't read it but I always like to read the Literary Review's articles about their "Bad Sex in Fiction" award. They are usually pretty cringe-worthy! ? 7y

Eyelit Lol - I'm so glad I clicked directly to your feed because I kept seeing you post these horrible excerpts and I was wondering how you were finding so much awkwardness in a short amount of time. Thanks for the cringing (and laughing)! 😄😂 7y
