What was this book even about? I did love the cover. It’s about a young wrestler on a low-end wrestling circuit who gets seriously injured and has to figure out what his life is about, washed up from the one thing he loved in his late 20s. He doesn’t know who his dad is. He copes poorly with relationships and takes the news of his girlfriend’s pregnancy and decision to have an abortion poorly. He gets along well with his mom. Each chapter is one little vignette about his life. Some are good, some are stupid. There is very little plot. Kwak is a good writer and there’s a strong voice throughout this novel, but I was hoping for more story, less character.
