A review by specificity
A Widow for One Year by John Irving

1.0

The plot was quite slow, but every time I felt bored enough to stop, there was a sudden twist which compelled me to continue reading, which on second thoughts, was not at all worth the effort.

His characters felt exaggerated. Eddie's obsession with Marion was clearly unhealthy. as was Ted's creepier obsession with younger women. Hannah felt larger than life, and Ruth rushed into marriages quicker and more impulsively than Ross Geller
