Negative Positive
Title: Brilliant!
Review: I am rarely disappointed when I read Ian McEwan and "Black Dogs" is one of his gems. The characters so perfectly realized they begin to breathe. They take us on a journey through a marriage, a time in history, and the forces of good and evil....and always that disquieting image of the black dogs, symbolic and/or real. It builds slowly, and with his luminous writing style, developes a rich and involving story. It lingers in my mind still. It's theme is so much bigger in scale that the slim volumn that contains it.
Is the review positive or negative?
