Negative Positive
Title: A Bit Uneven
Review: it is hard to tell whether the author is trying to tell a story of a writer from the black perspective or if he is trying to tell a story. Either way, one minute it feels as if he is trying to tell a story about the ugliness of racial, ethnnic, and religious bigotry through the use of three men who style themselves as white supremecists. The next it is a story of a black man's perceived struggle on a major newspaper with white management to whom, from his perspective, he won't "bow". Once I was able to get past the dual story which didn't mesh well it was an interesting read. The book did not hold my attention in a way that compelled me to keep reading but when I picked it up I my interest was held for several chapters. The number of chapters I read at a time often was determined by when the focus of the story changed. Both storylines were interesting, just not compelling together.
Is the review positive or negative?
