2009 book 78

Sara Houghteling's Pictures at an Exhibition
This novel, which focuses on a Jewish/French art dealer's son on the eve of and just after WWII, should have been compelling, but the flow was just horrible. I mean, the characters are ok, and the story is strong I guess, but it was just too jumpy and there was little emotional impact to anything. B-.
