Title: Terribly Dense
Product review: The Book of Fathers seemed to have such a fantastic premise, but by the time I was 100 pages into it I had to give up the ghost. The story, about a watch that allows the owner to look backwards and forwards in time, never came together for me.The story is terribly dense, and it never flows in a way that seemed natural. I really had to force myself to turn the pages of this plodding tale. This could very well be due to the fact that it's translated, it may come across much more smoothly in it's native tongue. Both brutal and thoughtful, there was a lot of potential for gripping story telling, but I think the book and I passed like ships in the night.
