Title: way too much flowery metaphor and retrospection
Review: I couldn't finish this book. The subject of a middle-aged woman running from her completely normal life and having an affair with a monk is a ridiculous notion to support. The book is poorly written with one long, boring, flowery metaphor after another. The main character waxes philosophic over every minute of her past and is just wretched with wanting what she can't or shouldn't have.This book reminds me of the stories that my juvenile mind in 7th grade creative writing class came up with!
Is the review positive or negative?
