Negative Positive
Title: Gave up on it.
Review: I was aware before I started this book that free African-Americans were slave owners in the days preceding the civil war so this was not really a revelation. I read books all of the time and I rarely quit on one but I gave up on this one. There were too many characters and no discernible plot over half way through the book, just anecdotal comments on the lack of morality or fairness in the world. I would be curious to know exactly why the Pulitzer committee would pick this book.
Is the review positive or negative?
