Negative Positive
Title: Entertaining, Yet Unconvincing
Review: Although an overall good read, I felt that this story lacked any real cohesion, closure, or message. As a Greek-American woman, I am offended by shallow attempts at conveying Hellenism through descriptions of food and myths, as it is overdone and often abused. There is much more to discovering one's roots than that. Hence, we have a maudlin, contrived tale which is a bit hard to swallow by many true Greeks. Nonetheless, the story is entertaining, engaging, and readable. It's just too bad that it's so stereotypical.
