Book Reviews of Foe
Book Review: A beautiful compelling masterpiece..
Summary: 5 Stars
I gaurantee that you won't be able to better spend 3-4 hours than to spend it reading this short novel! In this sort-of-retelling of the Robinson Crusoe story in the 'bigger picture', 'as it really happened', Coetzee asks us to think about what storytelling really is-- What liberties can authors take? Who's story can we really trust? Further, who is the real author of any narrative? But his cleverness and insights into his craft should not be the focus of a discussion about this book.. unless you're trying to figure out the mystical ending..
