I'll Never Be Young Again by Daphne du Maurier

2.0

I’ll never be young again is about a young man’s journey to maturity, however next to the superfluous descriptions that no one wanted to read Richard never matures. I realise it’s written in the 1930s, but all what happens is his acceptance of mediocrity. At the start at the book he doesn’t want to be like everyone else, he wants to travel, he wants to discover, in my opinion he is the most mature here. At the end, when he is supposed to be ‘mature’ he accepts his part in society and becomes mediocre.

Another fault is that Richard cannot treat women write, although it’s written in the 30s and women were treated differently then they are being treated now it’s still quite shaking to realise.

Don’t waste your time on this.
