Title: A long way down from High Fidelity
Product review: Since the excellent "High Fidelity", Hornby's books have become less and less coherent, a progression that now give us "A Long Way Down", a book that is a total mess.The four central characters take it turns to narrate, which quickly becomes a tiresome device. The impression is that he struggled to come up with one well-crafted character, so gave us 4 mediocre unconvincing ones instead.The book's second big problem is that the plot goes absolutely nowhere, which makes the reading experience ultimately unsatisfying.
