Review title: A Problematic novel
Product review: Meridian seems to be a loose collection of events from the life of a female protagonist we can neither admire nor totally despise. The reader is led to believe early-on that the protagonist is a strong civil rights activist whom people admire and celebrate, but her much of her life is spent running from responsibility (i.e. abortions, moving from place to place). Later we become suspicious of the author's motives -perhaps the book was written to elicit sympathy instead of insight. In the end we are left with a novel that is little more than an amateur's manuscript someone was afraid to edit.
