Negative Positive
Title: Walking through the desert would be a pleasure.
Review: compared to reading this book...First, I may be one of a few score of Americans who have first edition hardcovers of 22 Gerald Seymour novels. Great stories, must reads!Second, there is a blurb on the back cover of this book that says," Once in the final 150 pages, you will not be able to stop for a cup of tea or even breathe much". The reason is ....you'll be in a coma!Third, at page 300 I'd rather have been in a sun-drenched desert with a fetid camel blowing snot on me than reading this book.Fourth, I am sorry this book wasn't a suicide-booker.I've watched my child grow-up while I tried to finish this classic sleep-inducer. An endorcement blurb from the FDA would be more appropriate!If this is the future of Seymour factional writing, send the bombs my way. This obviously was the first salvo.
Is the review positive or negative?
