A review by sterlinglacroix
A Bright Ray of Darkness by Ethan Hawke

4.0

Great read to get me back into the realm of fiction after a several month break. I made note of several passages that struck me and will continue to dwell on. This book was a rollercoaster in the quality, it never could sustain a level of intensity or interest. He either brought it hard or I found it totally lacking, not much in between. I looked up Ethan Hawke's life and found this seems to be more of an autobiographical account than anything. 32-year old film star takes to the stage with Shakespeare while his marriage to another celebrity is falling apart due to his infidelity. Nothing wrong with that, but found it interesting. I'd certainly recommend this to anyone looking for a quick read with depth.
