She murders her husband after he comes back from a night of gambling and chasing women. One night, one of the women, a young and beautiful mother is finally at the end of her tether. The story revolves around four women who work the gruelling night-shift at a boxed-lunch factory. ![]() I thought it was about time to get into a good thriller, but I didn’t realise quite how gritty Out would be. Having read Grotesque by the same author a few years ago and after hearing that Out was supposed to be one of Kirino’s best novels I had it in the back of my mind to pick up a copy and although having kept an eye out for some while for one in a charity shop, I finally gave in and bought it new on sale from Amazon. If I had to put it into a category I would say it was a sort of psychological thriller, but it is not your average page-turner. Out, by Japanese author Natsuo Kirino is a difficult novel to categorise. ![]()
