Harold, Steven Wright

 

Harold by Steven Wright

Started: February 23, 2024
Completed: February 24, 2024
Recommendation: Highly Recommended
Recommended By: I saw Steven Wright talking about the book on a talk show

Review:

There are many, many reasons not to like this book.  I like it anyway.  It made me laugh once I gave up trying to figure out if there was really any plot.  Wright, as usual, has a habit of looking at the world in a way that I simply don't.  His description of how a boy might experience ADD was interesting, plausible, and a good reason to talk about birds.  The end of the book is just as I realized it would be about half way through and that was immensely satisfying.  If you do not like Wright's comedy, then stay away.
