A review by shannonw19
Dear Mr. M by Herman Koch

2.0

I put this book down when I was about half way through it. I just couldn't take it any more. The plot moves exceedingly slow. It switches between the present and the past, as oh so many books do now. But it does it so slowly that it is hard to keep interest.

I like Herman Koch's writing. But I found his voice in this book exceptionally pompous. I suppose the narrator is supposed to be. But it got to be so annoying, I couldn't concentrate on the plot. So I gave up. My apologies to Mr. Koch for not being able to finish. This just wasn't my cup of tea.

I won this book. I received no other compensation for my review and the opinion expressed herein are mine and mine along.
