A review by crownoflaurel
1929 by Frederick Turner

2.0

When I originally picked this, I thought it was going to be non-fiction, and I think I'd still rather read a non-fiction history of this period. Not because of the semi-fictionalization -- I didn't hate the story, necessarily -- but the conceit of the writing made this a tiring book to read. Perhaps it would have worked better as a short fiction, but I could have used more restful moments. Less non-stop, run-on sentences, especially when the events are of quieter, introspective nature.
