Book Review of Summerland

Summerland
Summerland
Author: Michael Chabon
Genres: Children's Books, Literature & Fiction
Book Type: Audio Cassette


This book crept up on me. Initially the narrator (who is also the author) sounded like he had severe learning disabilities and I thought "Is this how he thinks children want to spoken to ?" As I got into the story though the plot thickened and the author has an amazing repetoire of voices which helps you distinquish between Sasquatches and Ferrishers. I love how baseball and the lack of talent in that area is such an important part of the story. Well worth listening to and I would love to read more books by Michael Chabon.
