jayburding 's review for:
A Single Man
by Christopher Isherwood
DNF a third of the way through because I was struggling. I cannot fault the quality of the writing, I see why so many people like Isherwood. The start was strong, and what was said about Jim really held me, but the meandering lack of plot beyond that point made a thin volume feel like a slog. Also, I recognise the time period in which it was written, and therefore differing attitudes to race and language, but describing the POC students like animals put me off kilter and I don't think there was enough there to get me back enjoying it again.
