A review by davidlz1
Hell by Robert Olen Butler

1.0

This was really a painful read. I thought this would be a humorous book. While there were parts which were comical, the overall theme was anything but. It started off a bit dis-jointed. Then it moved to being uncomfortable. From there it progressed towards comical scenes relying on either well-known historical events or rather recent political events. From there it moved toward character redemption. But then it circled back on itself. In a way it was really challenging the definition of 'hell', but it remained elusive throughout. The one or two laughable moments just really are not worth the read.
Pass on this one.
