Review title: The Giller Jury Disapoints Me
Product review: It is beyond me why anyone would enjoy this novel, better yet,how the esteemed jury for the Giller Prize could think of nominatingthis book. It is poorly written and the plot and characters are sillyand inconsequential. None of the story is believable nor is anyof it particularly interesting or amusing. And I fail to see where anyof the humour is in the book. The humour that does exist is of thejock locker room variety, not very sophisticated or particularly interesting. The event that brings the characters together is so sillyand unbelievable, that the novel reminded me of an episode ofGilligan's Island. The whole thing reads falsely. And there is not oneappealing character among the bunch. I couldn't wait for the novelto be over and done with and on many occasions thought of givingit up because I found it so dull and silly. A dreadful read.
