Title: Boring and dull. Dull and boring.
Review: I found this book to be flat, dull and boring and the authour to be rather self-congratulatory. The author travels from one small Sicilian town to another trying to ... do what? I dunno. I read every word, and she didn't have much to say about Sicily or her people except that she likes them. She really likes them!As the series of vignettes progressed, it became difficult to follow any kind of time line. What happened when and with whom? Dunno. I am still unclear on how this book of little stories was organized, if indeed it was.Finally, I don't know that I gleaned anything from the book except that the author really likes Sicily and she's really glad that she got to live there and she's really lucky that anyone would publish her book.
Is the review positive or negative?
