Very character driven, with a stream-of-consciousness style of writing; the prose is quite flowery and wordy (too much so for me at least) making it hard going at times. Nevertheless, if you can look past this it is an immensely rewarding read, possessing a gripping, intensifying plot with a gut-wrenching twist toward the end. We Need to Talk About Kevin is a disturbing and thought-provoking exploration into nature vs nurture, family bonds and the phenomenon of school shootings.
