An odd book about an enormously fat person and a dwarf, although the fat person features as the main focus and sometimes narrator. There are some magic realism asides which explore earlier events that are supposedly linked to the modern story.
The idea is interesting - the human gaze and how it affects others. Unfortunately I find it hard going, with too much rambling and too much time recounting the shifts of the main character's inner dialogue. Not sure I will finish it...
