Title: A disappointing book
Review: I enjoyed The Shipping News and was delighted to find Accordion Crimes by the same author, E. Annie Proulx. However, I gave up reading Accordion Crimes at page 140. This book is essentially a collection of short, ethnic vignettes about successive owners of a green accordion. However, a unifying plot is lacking and the vignettes lack plots to hold my interest. The book is full of historic facts and well written, but that is not enough to keep me reading. I am sorry I purchased this book, a real disappointment.
Is the review positive or negative?
