Book Reviews of The Dogs of Babel: A Novel
Book Review: "Let it wash over you. It ends soon enough."
Summary: 5 Stars
I read Parkhurst's latest novel, "Lost and Found," first, and really enjoyed that book. So when a coworker let me borrow "Dogs of Babel," I took it very willingly. This book is truly tremendous. It's as unique as any I have read in recent past. The story telling is engaging and keeps you involved with the characters. The narrator, a man, is so realistic that at times I forgot that the author is a female. I wanted to find out what happened at the end (or the beginning, as the book bounces from real time to flashback) but at the same time,didn't really want the story to end. A great read, I definitely recommend this book.
