I Know This Much Is True by Wally Lamb
2.0
The one thing I found really distracting is Wally Lamb's over use of italics. I personally didn't like a characters vocal inflection being forced on me.
As for the story line, I thought parts of it were disjointed. The main character, Dominick reads a narrative written by his grandfather which is presented to the reader in the same way Dominick would read it - as its own story. While that made an interesting side story, when Dominick takes a break from reading the narrative if I hadn't picked up the book in a while, I found myself a little shell shocked from being engrossed in the narrative for so long!
