A review by scribal8
A Small Death in Lisbon by Robert C. Wilson

2.0

I like to read books about place and the history of a place. And this book is certainly about place and history. I give it only 2 stars because it's tag line could be: "Men are afraid women might laugh at them and women are afraid men might kill them." Except the sexual abuse is worse than that-- it seems to be the main personality characteristic for most of the men. I'm not sure why I'm continuing to read it. Sunk costs maybe? I want to find out if there's any redemption at all. And the historical and geographical details are interesting.
