The Girl Who’ll Rule the World by Jolie Booth (Saturn Returns Series Book 1)
Requirements: .ePUB Reader | 314 kb
Overview: As with an Impressionist painting, where the image appears from the dots, the story of Esmeralda emerges from the chaos of the writing, revealing a twenty-first century woman trying to make sense of a world gone mad.
Esmeralda is no girlie girl. She’s a mean, not very lean, shagging machine. Her body is not a temple. It’s a skip.
How can we describe Esmeralda’s life? Imagine Moll Flanders met Mrs Dalloway and they decided to drop some acid and dance all night at a party at a commune in Norwich. That’d be a start.
Structurally, this novel challenges perceptions of time and memory. Mingling past and present, Esmeralda drifts downstream through a series of scenes peopled by a rambling, picaresque cast of characters. Some are fleeting ghosts never seen again while others retain significance throughout the stream of Esmeralda’s consciousness. Actually, “drifts” is the wrong word. A more appropriate nautical metaphor would be that Esmeralda crashes through life like a rudderless speedboat, leaving havoc in her turbulent wake. No situation is too strange, no drug is off the menu, legal, illegal, or purely psychological.
This book is Fifty Shades for the Trainspotting generation, Fear of Flying for the acid trippers or Bridget Jones for those who were so off their face they can’t remember what happened yesterday.
In this, her first novel, Jolie Booth, has given voice to a new strong woman, Esmeralda, who, with all her disasters, triumphs, certainties, resolutions and contradictions manages to fascinate all around her and hold the whip hand.
