Negative Positive
Title: Absolute Drivel
Review: I read this book for the literary circle at my high school, and we unanimously declared it the worst thing we had ever read. It had no structure, so it appeared to be a mixed-up jumble of thoughts. Since there was no structure, the author strays off the "topic" (supposedly bullfights) quite frequently into little discussions about "venereal diseases", which he claims are relevant as they are a cause of death to many bullfighters.Perhaps if you have a Spanish background or love bullfighting, or possibly Ernest Hemmingway, it is possible you could relate to this book and enjoy it.Please note that our lit. circle read other books by Ernest Hemmingway. Those books, including "A Farewell to Arms", "The Old Man and the Sea", and "The Sun Also Rises", are definitely worth the read. Just because you liked other books by the same author, please do not assume you will like this one. I LOVED "The Old Man and the Sea" and "The Sun Also Rises", but I couldn't stand this book.
