Leah DeCesare's Reviews > Katerina

My copy of Katerina is underlined and dog-eared. It left me crying on the last page and wrenched emotion from me on every page. I loved returning to James Frey's writing style from A MILLION LITTLE PIECES (which I now want to reread) - it's poetic and powerful - breaking the rules of grammar and punctuation- which I find artistic, bold, freeing. If you're not one for swearing or crudeness, be forewarned, Katerina (like Frey's other books) is gritty, raw, raunchy, explicit, personal, and I'd love to see a word count for the "F" word. As he inscribed in my galley as advice, Frey really burned the f-ing world down with this book for its ability to make me feel deeply, to consider things in another way, and for its unique Freyian style.
