Title: overwrought and wrong
Product review: I wanted to see what all of the fuss was about, so I bought and read both this and LITTLE ALTARS EVERYWHERE. Ugh. Aside frome the fact that the details are often WRONG ("crayfish"? OYSTER muffulettas?), it's overwrought, overheated, the framing story is moronic.... How can you caonize a mother who is an alcoholic child-beating sexual abuser? Why would you want friends like the equally alcoholic and shallow Ya-Yas? As a friend of mine said, "All of the women who love this book are people I cannot stand."
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
