mikolee 's review for:

& Sons by David Gilbert
2.0


Interesting novel told from the perspective of an uptight side character. Really we'll written and yet somehow hard for me to get through. A New York literati family loosely based on a JD Salinger writer dad and his three sons. Interwoven with pieces of his novels the tale is an to fathers who have difficulty expressing themselves. They characters are all so narcissistic and self indulgent that it became a bit of a drag.
