books_n_bananas 's review for:
Divisadero
by Michael Ondaatje
I spent this whole book waiting for it all to tie together into something and it just doesn't.
Some of the scenes are just extreme (not to give spoilers, I'll just say the beating(s)). It's impossible to keep up with what time frame the book is taking place and why the characters are interacting the way they do.
It feels like maybe it's just a story about humans doing human things, but in that case, it goes too far out into extremes too often. It's a little mixed up and discombobulated and doesn't really wrap it up together.
Felt drawn out. Oof.
