Critiques
Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing.This book was very well written and certainly a unique concept, however, I found it difficult to read. It did not flow and I sometimes had trouble telling whether characters were animals, birds, or people. I rated it a three due to interesting writing style and originality - it was certainly like nothing I have read before. II just wish it were a bit more contiguous.
Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing.This was a strange but semi-enjoyable book. Lots of talking animals (haven't experienced that since Pynchon's Mason & Dixon) and confusing time twists. This book was like Tom Robbins goes to Lake Wobegon.
Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing.I found this book interesting and delightful. The eclectic characters were fascinating - even the talking animals. And even though the story seemed to jump around a bit, it still remained centered. The writing was excellent and I look forward to reading more by this author.
