Book Reviews of Angel Landing
Book Review: A Shallow and Silly Book
Summary: 2 Stars
This is a silly book. The magical realism that is the hallmark of Alice Hoffman's
style is apparent, but none of the attributes of her writing are evident in this
book. The premise of the book is ignorant, bordering on repellant.
A young welder causes an explosion at a power plant and seeks therapy. The
therapist falls in love with him and initiates an affair. No boundaries exist. As
if the affair wasn't enough, the therapist also breaches confidentiality. Hoffman
treats this all as okay.
The relationships are shallow and the dialogue simplistic. I expect much better
from a writer of Alice Hoffman's caliber. I recommend skipping this book and
reading one of her better ones such as 'Illumination Night' or 'Second Nature'.
