rghez 's review for:
Cloudstreet
by Tim Winton
So many people loved this book, rave reviews. It didn't get to me. So much sadness through the book. Just when there was a light in someone's life, disaster would hit. It was exhausting. I found the writing, while it had its moments, disjointed, events just happened then resolved. I never felt a narrative, I never knew why things happened.
His writing has moments of great beauty, and there are clearly motifs that tie the novel together by the end. I just never felt like I knew what was going on or really cared sometimes, quite frankly.
