Title: An Author in Ruins is more like it.
Review: After reading Leon Uris since I was in High School more than 25 years ago, I was so grossly disappointed by this book that I had to rethink my feelings of all of the Uris books of my past. I actually wonder if he really wrote this book or if some liberal pupil of his from Columbia conned him into letting him use his name for this worthless, poorly edited, cartoonishly poor work of strawman arguments. The "author" (yeah, right) is obvious in his desire to grind his politically liberal axe in the face of the average western American male. Mixed metaphor? Of course.Every character becomes a sterotypical caricature. The liberal politics are obvious. The editing is amateurish. And the story isn't even very interesting.Pretend Mr. Uris stopped writing after Redemption. Pretend he died with thoughts of the Irish free of politcal and religious turmoil and his notoriety will be saved.
Is the review positive or negative?
