Title: More a rough draft than a polished piece of writing
Review: I lived in Korea for a year and have read as much Korean-American fiction as I have been able to find. After skimming all the glowing reviews on Amazon, I was eager to read "Cab," but I was quite disappointed with the book. What's up with all this praise for what is essentially a mediocre long short story? I can see the kernel of something good here, but I think the author needed to work a lot more on this than she did. The writing is often tedious and sophomoric, and I agree with one of the other reviewers who felt this was more suitable reading for children than adults. (The style, not the content.) If you're interested in good Korean-American lit, give this a pass and check out Chang-Rae Lee or Heinz Insu Fenkel.
