Ohio: Grand Prix de littérature américaine 2020

The shifting viewpoints gave a layered view of the town's secrets, but I wonder if it made the story feel more personal or fragmented. Did others feel more connected to certain characters?

The setting feels so specific and lived-in — I’m curious whether this was drawn from real places or entirely fictional, and what motivated that choice.

Some sections felt introspective and slow, but maybe that was intentional to build atmosphere. Would love to hear if others felt the same or if it kept them hooked throughout.
