Pond by Claire Louise Bennett ‘This all happened several years ago by the way- and i’m not absolutely sure why I’m recounting it here since it hardly situates me in a very flattering light’ ‘Sometimes, a banana with coffee is nice… apples can be forgotten about, but not bananas’ ‘All the names mean nothing to you, and your name means nothing to them.’ Sometimes Pond is poetry. Sometimes it is the narrator wondering whether or not she’s had breakfast, or whether throwing a party is a good idea. It recounts the past and goes off into neurotic fantasies about the present. It’s a beautifully written account of living alone, and it’s very very funny
