Negative Positive
Title: mediocre and poorly written fast food.
Review: This man should first attend an english class on 'cliche' before pelting them at us so savagely - so relentlessly. I was in a constant state of painful literary paroxism. I had to read this, I was verily forced to read this for one of my fiction-writing classes, and I was thoroughly disturbed by the combination of lack luster writing (it's said to be 'spare', but more properly one would call it talentless)and high praise. The fact that it has more than its share of 'script' moments, scenes that would be more enjoyable on screen than in a book, is a testament to its indolent abuse of letters.I read the equivalent of one modern novel every other day and with all the wonderful literature to choose from I would save my resources for something of value, perhaps a classic. This is rubbish, and that's why it's popular.
Is the review positive or negative?
