The Rabbit Hutch is a stunning debut novel about four teenagers—recently aged out of the state foster-care system—living together in an apartment building in the post-industrial Midwest, exploring the quest for transcendence and the desire for love.

“Gunty writes with a keen, sensitive eye about all manner of intimacies—the kind we build with other people, and the kind we cultivate around ourselves and our tenuous, private aspirations.”—Raven Leilani, best-selling, award-winning author of Luster

The automobile industry has abandoned Vacca Vale, Indiana, leaving the residents behind, too. In a run-down apartment building on the edge of town, commonly known as the Rabbit Hutch, a number of people now reside quietly, looking for ways to live in a dying city. Apartment C2 is lonely and detached. C6 is aging and stuck. C8 harbors an extraordinary fear. But C4 is of particular interest.

Here live four teenagers who have recently aged out of the state foster-care system: three boys and one girl, Blandine, who The Rabbit Hutch centers around. Hauntingly beautiful and unnervingly bright, Blandine is plagued by the structures, people, and places that not only failed her but actively harmed her. Now all Blandine wants is an escape, a true bodily escape like the mystics describe in the books she reads.

Set across one week and culminating in a shocking act of violence, The Rabbit Hutch chronicles a town on the brink, desperate for rebirth. How far will its residents—especially Blandine—go to achieve it? Does one person’s gain always come at another’s expense? Tess Gunty’s The Rabbit Hutch is a gorgeous and provocative tale of loneliness and community, entrapment and freedom. It announces a major new voice in American fiction, one bristling with intelligence and vulnerability.

Overlong and over written

Commenté au Royaume-Uni 🇬🇧 le 8 novembre 2022

The Rabbit Hutch felt very much as if the author had thrown every idea she had ever had at the book. It is far too long - it could have lost 100 plus pages, and would have been a much better book for it. The cliches come thick and fast and the writing makes Henry James appear taciturn! Somewhere in this book is the kernel of a really interesting story but it is lost in the overblown prose and tedious efforts to appear clever. There are so many good books out there, so don't waste your time on this one.

Hoped to like this as enjoyed the concept. Ended up not looking forward to reading it. One chapter very weird. Still give it a whirl, it might be for you if you like the idea, just not for me.

I found this book very different but ultimately enjoyable. Parts of the prose was amazing and the characters memorable. The town itself was a character.

Mostly great

Commenté aux États-Unis 🇺🇸 le 11 décembre 2022

Achat vérifié

Mostly great. Inventive, sharply observed, witty, bold. Cons: the book honestly feels like it consists of something like 80% description/exposition and 15% backstory. Every character gets paragraphs and paragraphs of description, and there are numerous characters. Same for places/setting. This is excellent and fun to read for awhile, but across the book it came to feel exhausting, mainly because it detracts from a reader’s ability to sustain the dream of the story and drop away into the imagined world of the book. An awareness of the author herself, and the cleverness employed in the language of this book, overrode my ability to focus on the characters—I was constantly reminded the characters were being wrung into existence by all that description rather than just getting to know them by following them through action. The book insisted that I keep noticing the author instead, when my favorite books are the ones so seamless and elegant I drop into the fictive world and forget about the author entirely. There also is, in the end, very little present action in this book. I believe that’s why people have a hard time describing it—not because of some of its eccentric elements, but because so little happens. The summary of this book could be: a lot of people, places, and things are described, at LENGTH, using inventive language. Though even that language holds odd reiterations throughout—a repeated stance against vegans, suburbia, patterned wallpaper, and the color beige, among others, including a lot of overstatement/over-thought on the distinction between what is real and what is not—numerous characters struggle with that divide, and it gets to be exhaustive.

Lastly, (and be warned, somewhat of a spoiler ahead) I’m bothered by the animal violence as well as the structure and use of violence as the primary engine of this narrative. The “hook” of the book—what the author clearly knowingly employs to grip readers and keep them turning the pages—is the threat and actualization of violence against a young woman. The opening pages of the book trick the reader into thinking something even worse than what actually occurs with blandine will happen at the end, and I feel this is a terrible and ugly bait and switch. For a book that has no hesitation arguing for social justice in a wide variety of areas, those arguments ultimately ring false and empty when the entire narrative—it’s known selling point and propulsive force—is violence against a woman. Can we call this tired theme inventive, after all, regardless of the sparkly language in which it’s described? A brilliant, economically poor, unconventionally beautiful young girl being seduced by an older man is at this point such a reiterated relationship dynamic in celebrated fiction that I'm starting to wonder/worry about what it says about general cultural appetites (see: Luster, Great Circle, Fates and Furies, How Much of These Hills is Gold etc. etc. etc.) What's especially painful about The Rabbit Hutch is that these scenes of sexual violence ultimately have no bearing or effect on the main events of the book, meaning they were completely gratuitous, and that is not the type of writing I like to read.

Overall: with more editing and less use of sexual and animal violence as a hook to engage readers (without much point or purpose beyond that function) I would give this great debut the full five stars.
