Book Reviews of The Krzyzewskiville Tales
Book Review: Smug, overwrought and overwritten
Summary: 2 Stars
Smug, overwrought and overwritten, pretentious reworking of the Canterbury Tales into tales of K-ville, the tent city that grows outside Cameron Indoor Stadium at Duke University during basketball season.
My opinion may be shaped by my dislike for the school and my jealous response to a young Duke graduate having a book published on such a thin premise--by the press of the university it lauds from beginning to end!.
