MY FRIEND NATALIA by Laura Lindstedt

I usually try to read 50 pages before giving up on a book, but I only made it to around page 41 on this one. Not an enjoyable read. I think the whole novel is going to be a therapy session. Boring! Plus I read her Wikipedia page that her second novel (not My Friend Natalia) took eight years to write. Maybe that's why the prose comes across as so clunky. Could have something to do with the translation too.
