Title: Dull and obvious, contrived and dull
Review: I read this twice--once because I had to read it and once because I had to teach it. Both times I was stupefied by its thick, plodding, contrived plot and bizarrely drawn characters. I do not understand why on earth this book has received the altitudinous praise it has received. I would not choose to teach it again and I would not recommend it. Maybe something else by Morrison (who I feel is an "okay" writer, but certainly not an American great) would do.Apparently, some people gush and gaa-gaa over this tome. Had I been the editor in charge or yea-ing or nay-ing it, there would not have been any reviews on it today.e
Is the review positive or negative?
