Fiction - general - Metaphorosis Reviews

Not bad, but difficult to recommend strongly beyond the Youd-enthusiast community.

Sarnia – Hilary Ford

An allegory about ... loss? depression? I'm not sure.

A pleasant read.

Best read as contemporary literature rather than science fiction.

A pleasant, easy read, but likely to leave little lasting impact.

A colorful picture of a bygone India from a character and writer who cross boundaries.

This is also a story that could have been told just as effectively in a short story.

An effective fictional study of a few key lives in the history of an Ecuadorian coastal village facing pressure from Spanish colonists.

I'm a fan of Dickens, but this is among the least successful of his books that I've read.

There are no surprises here.

The overall narrative tried hard to keep me from finishing the book.

A wasted opportunity to tell an interesting story in any genre.
