The Constant Gardener by John le Carré

3.0

I don't know what it was about this story, but I simply could not visualize the correct time period for it! Perhaps I'm just not accustomed to the author's style of writing, but I kept picturing this set in the 1930's when it made obvious reference to current-day issues and amenities. Overall, it was a different read from my usual, so I appreciated that about it. I just could never get truly invested into the story or the characters. So few of them were likable, even the ones who were meant to be. I think I might have more luck with a different title from the same author, so we will see.
