Book Reviews of My Secret History
Book Review: An excellent novel, full of laughs and sadness. A VG read.
Summary: 4 Stars
In this novel Paul Theroux takes us through the life of a travelling writer. USA, Africa, Siberia, India, England... The hero lives two lives, one official (he teaches and writes) and one secret, full of sex and misdemeanours. An everyday person, he sometimes hurts people unvoluntarily and has to deal with it. A terribly realistic character, whom we can only despise and like at the same time. A very enjoyable read.
