Title: Frankenstein's Monster?
Review: My daughter picked Kent Haruf for English class major author project. So we both bought all 4 of his books, and read them together. Of the four, this was my favorite.Much has been said already about Kent's writing style, simple and strong, like the location of his four novels.As I read this book, I was reminded of story of Frankenstein: Be careful where you invest your time, it will return to you in spades. In this story, the town, Frankenstein, had created quite a monster. The destruction wrought by this monster is sobering, and very sad. Yes, a sad ending, but one that makes you really think. And I liked the lack of closure. Sometimes you just don't know how something ends. Kind of like life.
