Little Scratch By Rebecca Watson
Books Synopsis :
In the formally experimental tradition of Grief Is the
Thing with Feathers and Ducks, Newburyport comes
a dazzlingly original shot-in-the-arm of a novel that
reveals one young woman's every thought over the
course of twenty-four hours.little scratch tells the
story of an unnamed woman living in a world of
office politics, clock-watching and emoji-texting as
she relays what it takes to get through mundanity in
the wake of a recent sexual assault.Formatted in
continuously interweaving columns that chart the
feedback loop of memory, the senses, and modern
distractions with witty precision, our narrator
becomes increasingly anxious as the day moves on;
and increasingly intent on distracting herself. Must
she really drink eight glasses of water a day to stay
hydrated? Does the word "rape" apply to what
happened to her? Why is the etiquette of the
women's bathroom so fraught? Does the colleague

who keeps offering to make her tea know
something? And why can't she stop
scratching?Fiercely moving and slyly profound, little
scratch is a fearless and defiantly playful look at
how our minds function in-- and survive--the darkest
moments.
