Review title: Shallow Pop Drivel
Product review: I read and enjoyed "High Fidelity," but this book is junk. I feel as though Hornby is pulling one over on us, dashing this book off in the time he could scrounge between New Yorker articles and conference calls with his publisher. I would be more forgiving of the flat plot, dull characters, and failed thematics if I felt that he was giving it his all. We know from High Fidelity that he is capable of storytelling that uses pop culture references and flip Britishisms as texture but ultimately hits on something more meaningful. In "How to Be Good," he asks an interesting question (the title) but does nothing with it.If you don't care about any of this and would be satisfied reading Nick Hornby's grocery list in a pretty binding, click "Add to Cart." If you're interested in exploring a character's ethical crisis, skip this book. Try Dostoyevsky.
