  • The Shipping News - Annie Proulx

    Now, I’m only around 2/3 of the way through, but daaaaamn is it boring. My god. Don’t give a shit about any of the characters and I’m having to force my way through it. The grammar style I respect for doing something different, but it’s also a chore.

    It’s a Pulitzer Prize winner. I read this immediately after Lonesome Dove, another PP winner. One I couldn’t put down and the other I want to throw away.

    Did anyone else like this book and why?
