Title: Disappointing
Review: It's taken me months to read the Spanish version of Zorro because I can't get interested in the characters or the plot. Her writing is heavily narrative with little character development. For instance, she'll introduce a scene that describes in great detail the location or activities of her characters while only briefly stating what they are feeling.I was surprised by the very dry style of Zorro because I'm also reading her novel, "Portrait in Sepia", in Spanish. In "Portrait" she writes very expressively and imaginatively. Perhaps in Zorro she got caught up in trying to produce a historically accurate novel at the expense of the rest?
