Stereo's Reviews > Waste

Alright. This book is wild. It's best if you know as little as possible. Here's what you NEED to know. It's disgusting. Not in a 'to each their own' kind of way, but in an understood, across the board, unanimously abhorrent kind of way. And if you are open to living in that world for a few sittings, the prose in Waste is sharp and noxious. I think it maybe gets too in its own way with some of the nonsensical dialogue, almost like it's hammering home "things aren't quite right here," but overall I spent my time with Waste being gripped from page one and quieting my stomach on page ten.
