Literary Fiction
Date Published: May 30, 2023
This young female narrator, by the name of Tazz Iverson, will convince you
that there are unorthodox paths to triumph, even thru gloomy, violent, and
wildly unreasonable circumstances, especially those your parents, teachers,
or anyone who is supposed to care won’t vouch for. Dead-honest as she
is, she will likely make you laugh out loud and challenge you at your
core.
Having left her home country, friends and family, and her acceptance to a
creative writing course, she searches for fulfillment and revolution against
practically everyone, in a holiday resort in Scotland. Her growing contempt,
unrecognized brilliance, and unfulfilled gifts and desires send her from one
shithole to the next. There is a straightforwardness to the narration that
makes us really understand her when no one else does, which makes this
character study so engaging. This is not an easy character, but the honesty
she gives us is handed right to the reader with the stomach to discuss
it.
