Amsterdam – Review

“I think of novels in architectural terms. You have to enter at the gate, and this gate must be constructed in such a way that the reader has immediate confidence in the strength of the building. “

Ian McEwan

Well, the book won him the Booker Prize in 1998. I don’t want to judge the book, so let me just say it didn’t appeal to my taste. I felt like I was using a run-of-the-mill book I picked up from the second hand book shop as a soporific.

To keep it terse: Much Ado About Nothing.
