like that other overrated turd Catcher in the Rye.
It’s shite. Kid is a proto incel and if you’ve only read it as an adult it is a complete chore to get through all that whining.ehhhhhhhhhh
well that's a point. I read it late teens, I think. I remember enjoying it, but thinking that there was something off about it.It’s shite. Kid is a proto incel and if you’ve only read it as an adult it is a complete chore to get through all that whining.
yeah, shur why not.Ok, can we at least agree that it’s vomity and crummy?
just a little catcher in the rye humouri read both books as an adult and liked them. so suck on that, you phonies.
It was published in 1984! I didn't realise that - first thing I heard about Banks was him being championed when I lived in the UK in the mid-90s. I really enjoyed a lot of his non-SF books - Espedair St, Whit, The Crow Road - but now I think of it I probably read them 20+ years ago so who knows?I’m baffled how Iain Banks couldn’t get The Player of Games published, but The Wasp Factory was not only published but championed by all sorts.
Yeah I read Espedair Street in the mid 90s too, enjoyed it, and had always meant to read the Wasp Factory as it was his biggie, plus there was a band called The Wasp Factory who toured Ireland and played Galway. So I was all set for a fun read. I probably went a bit hard into it up there, for this reason.It was published in 1984!
