In the Forest - Book Review

In the Forest by Edna O'Brien

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


This book started off attention-grabbing, but almost mid-way through took a turn for the worse. At that point, the initially, misunderstood main character lost my sympathy when he began to live up to the communitie's negative expectations of him. At this point the 2nd primary character was introduced and another 'story' seems to have begun. Unfortunately, when the two characters come together the whole story falls apart and one wonders what the point of it all was.
