A review by texbooks
Spartina by John Casey

1.0

What a mediocre novel. I can't believe it won the National Book Award. There must be a story to that. Repetitive, full of endless seafaring analogies, plot not interesting (angry working man strives for more! Cheats on wife! Everything works out in the end!). Don't you believe the quote on the front that this is the best thing since old man and the sea and moby dick. That's laughable.
