A review by gabrodriguez29
The Last of the Mohicans by James Fenimore Cooper

1.0

As English is not my first language I was afraid to read "The Last of the Mohicans" for it knew it had really complex language. Turns out that that was not a problem at all but somehow half of the time I had no idea what was going on; besides the fact that there are entire chapters with no action whatsoever and the eternal dialogues that lead to nowhere the thing that put me out was that apparently Cooper forgot about characters for dozens of pages and I also forgot they were there until a "hugh" was muttered by any of them and that was all that was say by the natives like they had no personality or awareness of what was going on and the book makes it look like the only thing important to them was an occasional battle. And the fact that there was a guy that first was named Hayward and then Duncan and finally David (I think he was the same guy) was so confusing that I had to put down the book and recapitulate a lot. It was tiring and not at all exciting, I recognize it has a lot of History involved and I quite liked that part but besides that the book is too long for that Cooper was trying to say.
