Negative Positive
Title: Pedestrian
Review: After reading the reviews of this book in the trade press, I was expecting something more than "Bill Bryson's Modern Disaster Stories". But that's what this book reminds me of: pulp fiction, or should I say non-fiction. The stories are interesting but self-serving. We're all supposed to be impressed by the author's wonderous experiences. But his coverage is superficial and nothing is said that is new, informative or particularly insightful. It's interesting but not worth the money. Wait for the paperback or, better yet, borrow the book from the library. One can only wonder what wonderful things Junger's publicists offered the reviewers.
Is the review positive or negative?
