I read Ducks, Newburyport 3 years ago and it remains one of my favourite books. The narrative style is so compelling and its size, while intimidating, goes by quickly.

What is your favourite book?

I really want to read Ducks, Newburyport by Lucy Ellmann. It’s a stream of consciousness narrative that’s basically a single long sentence. It’s 1,000 pages long so it’d take more than one day to read. I don’t think my brain would let me stop reading a book mid sentence but I’d have too!

Ar @dyfrig mae’r bai am hyn
