Negative Positive
Title: Read this only after you have read Hazzard's other books.
Review: I couldn't finish The Evening of the Holiday. It was Hazzard's first novel, and it shows: immature, boring. It does not capture a sense of place and time as well as the other two Hazzard books I read. To put things in perspective, I gave The Great Fire 4 stars, and would consider The Bay of Noon a 3 star book.
