Episode 59 of The ADHD Book Club Podcast is here, and we’re reading Creation Lake by Rachel Kushner. Ron Charles of The Washington Post said, “The first satisfying surprise is that Kushner has designed this story as a spy thriller laced with a killer dose of deadpan wit ... The story, told in short chapters that feel punchy even when they’re highly cerebral, slides around the labyrinth of Sadie’s mind, which is equally deceptive and deceived ... Kushner inhabits the spy’s perspective with such eerie finesse that you feel how much fun she’s having ... Bore through this noir posing and wry satire of radical politics, and you feel something vital and profound prowling around in the darkness beneath.” Korey says, “Sadie definitely is not a good spy, it’s definitely not a thriller, there’s nothing thrilling happening in this book at all.” Ashley says, “I mean, this might just be the story of kind of a bad spy.” Spoiler: they didn’t hate it, though.
