lewipoint 's review for:

Autobiography of Red by Anne Carson

2.5

fast-paced

---

If you like erudite literary wankery I guess you'll probably like this. I can't help but believe that people who found this life changing maybe live quite sedate and dull lives. It was a cute tale and the formatting was interesting though the main compulsion to keep reading was just that it's so short and quick I knew I'd get there sooner rather than later. The characters were fine but not that remarkable and nor was the story anything but passably interesting.
TLDR: I'm not smart enough for this book but I'm glad people like it.
