Book Reviews of Falling Slowly
Book Review: A novel of sadness,shame and loneliness
Summary: 3 Stars
Anita Brookner writes poignantly about life and it's absurdities.Kafka would have her as his bride I think.One of the things that kept me wondering as to the motivations for these sisters,especially Miriam,was to why they are the way they are.I can only think that it has to do with a deep,deep shame that goes to the core of their being.Not feeling entitled to any long term happiness. The writing was overly pretentious I thought but did learn the meanings of some new words. Am reading A Private View now.
