stupid
recommended for: old people, linguists, people who are masochists
I didnt actually read this story, I TRIED to read the book. My mom suggested it as being a great story, and I'm sure that it is... but Henry James writes using the most tedious and long sentences possible and I found myself too annoyed to read the story.
These sentences were so long but the imparted information was so short, it was very similar to a subtitled or dubbed kung fu flick in that a character would rattle on for 60 seconds and the translation would be one or two words like 'good' or 'lets go'.
ugh!
