Title: Guterson has lost his way.
Product review: When compared to Snow Falling on Cedars, Guterson's East of the Mountains, has disappointed this reader. It's as if he had to publish another book quickly to recapture his audience. I fault his publisher. He would have better spent more time and write about a more interesting subject. He even could have used this theme if he had found some way to develop his characters in more depth. They are all very shallow and superficial. Hopping from character to character did nothing for me. Guterson should reread his "Snow Falling..." to find a book worth writing. I know he has the talent. Please try again, Mr. Guterson.
