The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Diaz
WHAT did I just read???
By
Helen T. Diehl
(Ivyland, PA) – See all my reviews
This review is from: The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao
Oscar Wao was a strange book for me to read.
I would not recommend it but at the same time I wouldn’t discourage someone
who wanted to give it a go. As you could see by the many mixed reviews on Amazon
– some people LOVED it & others (like me) just didn’t get it.
It was too discombobulated for me going from present to past,
back & forth. Some parts are written in Spanish which
I could guess at their meaning but didn’t know for sure how it translated.
At many points I was like “what did i just read?” & “HOW does it relate to the story?”.
After reading the reviews I have a better understanding of the book hence why 2 stars & not one.
