Negative Positive
Title: Nothing spectacular here.
Review: I purchased Ahab's Wife on the recommendation of others. I regret purchasing this worthless jumble of words. These 666 pages are filled with boring reminiscences and flashbacks. By the 60th chapter, the novel has barely progressed. The "heroine" is reliant upon other characters in the novel. Una is a weakly constructed personality, less of a heroine and more of a dependent. The writing is calculated and boring, formulated for popular success but nothing more. This is an enjoyable yet shallow read.
