Quirky
submitted by camelsamba on July 2, 2011, 9:35pm
Lots of quirky characters. Critics might say there is too much stereotyping – such as the poor peasants, untouched by riches and the foolery it brings, thus full of wisdom and love. A cynical New Yorker transformed by a week in their presence. Etc.
First half was slow and dragged on quite a bit. I was on the verge of giving up reading it, but the last half was more enjoyable. Last chapter had kind of a strange twist – the parts about Miss L'Hommedieu's past. So I liked the book, but it's not the kind of thing I would re-read.
