Ducks, Newburyport By: Lucy Ellmann Published: July 4, 2019 Date Finished: January 6, 2024 Rating: 9/10 Ducks, Newburyport is a big commitment. It tips the scales at almost 1000 text dense pages. I devote quite a bit of time to reading and it still took me all of a month to finish. The author, Lucy Ellmann, is the daughter of a famous James Joyce biographer and the work is very Joycean in nature. Undertaking reading Ducks, Newburyport is a big risk too, since most reviews out there either loved the book (like me) or couldn’t stand it or abandoned it before they finished. It was awarded the 2019 Goldsmiths Prize and shortlisted for the 2019 Booker Prize, but popular book reviewers on YouTube can be found excoriating the work.
