Alice Boccia asked this question about The Lowland:
I am a little confused about the ending. I think the book was well written, and the author is extremely intelligent, but at times I feel the book could been cut in half. Is the ending just telling you what led up to everything that happened and why it happened? I already knew all this. Am I missing something in the ending I should know about?
Amit Hey Alice, I just completed reading the book and would like to share my opinion about the question you asked.
Yes the ending felt a little bit incomple…moreHey Alice, I just completed reading the book and would like to share my opinion about the question you asked.
Yes the ending felt a little bit incomplete but if we think about it the book was always more about the journey of those characters rather than what happened and why happened.
