Negative Positive
Title: Far from Literature
Review: I found this book under Literary Fiction, read a few of the first reviews, and then read a sample. I must have suffered a mini-stroke somewhere along the line because I actually bought this expensive book and quickly found it unreadable. And then began the remorse for money wasted. The writing is stiff, self-conscious, and unnatural. The characters are cliched, as are the love and war scenes. If you read to be titilated this might be your cup of tea. If you read to enjoy something "novel" and creative do not buy this book. It is not literature but an average grade "C" attempt at it.
Is the review positive or negative?
