A review by bccoulter
Look Homeward, Angel by Thomas Wolfe

2.0

Not my cuppa tea. Like Faulkner and Kafka, both of whom I love, Wolfe's writes from within the narrator's real time experience of the events, which can be both disorienting and fascinating. Unlike others, Wolfe writes as if he is getting paid by the word. Some sentences are so packed w/ verbiage, they are literally incomprehensible.
Vivid character development and sense of time and place - good as they were - didn't compensate for me for the tedium.
