Creation Lake is a novel from a writer at the height of their capability. Every bit of it, or almost every bit of it, from the self referential winks at the end to the digressions into water tables and pre history has a place and purpose. It isn't howeber, just well constructed. This Kusnher masterpiece spends time with the characters. It has been soe time since I've been so simultaneously res * repulsed, intrigued, and terrified of a main character before. Her 'Sadie' isn't some super spy. She's arguabley * sic* way too grounded in the rational. (See the scary part above). Her gaping flaws are one of the man amain ways she becomes relatable. Just read it.
