Negative Positive
Title: A perfect beach read!
Review: I had no objection to the novel, other than that it was hailed as an extraordinary work of art. To be fair, the war scenes were some of the best I'd ever read, but the writer spoiled them with his trite and unconvincing portrayal of the affair between Stephen and Isabelle, and by his seeming inability to create a single solid female character.
