Elizabeth R. (esjro) - , reviewed on 4/6/2008 + 947 more book reviews

Helpful Score: 1

I was eager to read this book after the rave critical reviews, but I just could not get into it. The main reason was that although the plight of the young protagonist should inspire sympathy I did not find him very likable and therefore could not feel sympathetic. The book does offer an interesting glimpse into a culture very different from ours, but I thought that I would be more emotionally moved by this book than I was.
