aditurbo 's review for:
Munich Airport
by Greg Baxter
This should have been a short story or a novella, rather than a novel. The writing is very good, but there's not enough story for a full novel, so instead of being poignant and to the point, it starts dragging on, with nothing much happening. How many times can you appreciate the hunger metaphor? After a while you feel like shouting at the author "Okay!! I got it!!!". So everyone is malnourished physically and emotionally, but there is not much else to deepen and bulk up the novel, which is a shame. This is a good writer shooting himself in the leg here.
