Title: Powerful, but Miserable
Product review: The only positive thing I can say about this book is that Wally Lamb definitely paints a picture. Unfortunately, the picture he paints is one of depression, angst and dysfunction. The publisher should provide complimentary prozac with every purchase. It was the most depressing piece of writing I've ever read. I kept thinking that this girl's life couldn't possibly get any worse, but was wrong time and time again. The heroine is utterly stomped on, beaten and tossed about by life in ways that one couldn't possibly imagine. A tiny glimmer of hope in the end was not enough of a reward for enduring the misery of this poor woman's life. It was too deep, disturbing and depressing for my liking.
