We have enough money Gilead Novel Marilynne. there was a level at which I was skeptical that a father was write such things to his son, and from another perpective, the monologue restricted the panorama of characters. It took a long time for me to engage with the character of the narrator. This is effectively a letter from an elderly preacher to his young son, telling the story of his history and relationships. I chose Gilead after reading many postive reviews and noting that it won the Pulitzer prize for fiction. |
