"Catch Me I'm Falling, Flying Head First Into Fate"


I just read, Falling Man by Don DeLillo...and I thought Revolutionary Road was bad. Good thing is that this book is significantly shorter. The story is about life after 9/11. It follows a man named Keith, who worked at the towers, and his family. Well if you call them a family. The whole book, to simply put it, was a mess. It was all over the place. Never really quite clear as to who is speaking, the dialogue is awful and the only redeeming part of this book is the last 10 pages. Everything that went on throughout the story was pointless. It was an amoeba of a plot. I don't recommend this to anyone.

I need to read a classic to get over this bad book curse. On to Jane Eyre!
