Description
A deeply personal and introspective novel by cult icon Katherine Dunn. Toad is a poignant reflection on a life of regret and longing, told through the eyes of Sally Gunnar, a reclusive woman who has withdrawn from the world. Sally's days are spent alone at home, surrounded by the mundane routines of cleaning and reading. Yet, despite her isolation, she finds solace in memories of her past, particularly her time at college with a group of eccentric friends. With a mix of self-deprecation and dark humor, Sally recounts their misadventures, including the tragedy that tore them apart. This novel is a powerful exploration of womanhood and the human condition, written with Dunn's characteristic mordant observations about the darker aspects of life.
