bristlecone 's review for:
A River Runs Through It
by Norman Maclean
The fly-fishing descriptions are great, and the question of if and how can one help others is eternally pressing. But ultimately this is a book about men who have trouble expressing emotions and communicating with each other, written by an author who is uncomfortable expressing his emotions so relies on descriptions of fly-fishing. It was a perfectly fine read, but less impressive than expected given it's critical praise. However, I'm not really a Hemingway fan, and given that much of the praise for this book compares it to Hemingway, it isn't surprising that I have some reservations.
