Negative Positive
Title: Painfulsong...
Review: I read this book before I checked any reviews on this site. Wow, what a dissapointment. A friend told me, "You will love it, just like Faulkner!" I guess I won't try anything by Faulkner now. Nothing is resolved, the characters are lifeless, the lack of quotation marks a constant annoyance. I kept looking ahead to see how many pages I had left. When I missed a point, I did not go back to reread a passage because I just didn't care. Why did so many people like this book? A case of the "Emperor's New Clothes", yet again.
Is the review positive or negative?
