Review: The Misremembered Man

The Misremembered Man

by Christina McKenna

The Positive

- Interesting plot elements

- A nice tribute to times past

- Some good prose … written by someone who obviously appreciates language

- Not overly written for “shock” or “gore” … PG to PG-13, which is so rare these days

The Negative

- The story moves along slowly

- Adverbs abound, in tremendous numbers, and some of the writing goes a little overboard. Think opposite of Hemingway.

- Hokey characters, to the point of being hard to believe

Overall, it was okay, however, I almost stopped reading it because it moves slowly and I found it a little boring. For me. Maybe for you it will be great. If you prefer wholesome looks at how things were in the past, then I recommend it.
