Review title: Too Much Reality?
Product review: I didn't much enjoy Nick Hornby's "How to be Good." However, unlike some of the other reviewers, my issue with the book isn't that Hornby's characters are unrealistic--I thought his characters were believable and the situations entirely poissible. David's deelings with Goodnews are just a slightly more extreme form of a midlife crisis, but that doesn't mean that it's preposterous. I simply found the book to be very depressing, something I would not condemn a work for except that the reviews plastered on the back cover praise the work for its humor. There are funny moments, particualarly in Kate's attempts to handle her husband and daughter as they gang up on her, but overall the work is a rather upsetting look at a modern marriage. Although I didn't enjoy the book, I think the problem doesn't lie in Hornby's writing, but rather in what I felt was misrepresentation of the book's content by the publishing company.
