janebinks 's review for:

Any Human Heart by William Boyd
2.0
slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Not for me. I nearly gave up after 100 pages but persevered to the end. Struggled to read about such a shallow entitled and misogynistic man with few redeeming features. I’m not saying I didn’t enjoy it because I didn’t like the main character - Alan Hollinghurst writes about people like this and I love his writing - I just didn’t get the point of the book - probably my fault.
