The Nest by Cynthia D'Aprix Sweeney

The NestThe Nest by Cynthia D'Aprix Sweeney
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
2016

Interesting read.
There is no one word to explain the story. This story explains the complicated relationships amongst families, in particular Leo Plumb. The effects of one person can dramatically alter the lives of those around him.
"He'd been itching to get them all together in one room and try to make a tiny inroad into facilitating some kind of agreement about the infernal sum of money they still insisted on calling The Nest, which drove Walker mad."
"Aside from being infantile, he couldn't fathom how a group of adults could use the term in apparent earnestness and never even casually contemplate the twisted metaphor of the thing, and how it relates to their dysfunctional behavior as individuals and a group."
