Title: absolutely appalling
Product review: Cannot see why this book is so popular. Poorly written, dialogue unreal, characters not fleshed out, the ya yas completely unappealing and not like anyone you would want to know, let alone be like. But then, "Bridges of Madison County" and "Horse Whisperers" were popular, too. It is amazing to me when there are so many good writers out there--Smiley, Kingsolver, Gibbons, Russo--how anyone can struggle through such drivel. I tried for l67 pages and then I was getting so depressed I had to give up. Back to Welty.
