Finely-crafted fiction that ultimately left me unsatisfied, The Fates Will Find Their Way was more performance art than story, more ambience than psychological insight, more melancholy goo than piercing insight. Many have compared Hannah Pittard's use of the first-person plural narration to The Virgin Suicides, and so did I, even before I read a single review, and despite having never read Jeffrey Eugenides's book. Perhaps it was a deliberate answer to the 1993 book, but to what purpose I cannot say. There is death, attempted suicide, sex crime and upper-middle class angst aplenty in this work, but the overarching hazy cynicism was so off-putting I could find no reason for the telling, or the imagining, of Nora Lindell's story. I admired this book's bones, but not it's heart.
