Summary: Brilliant
Comment: This is Anita Brookner at her very best. Fascinating, introspective examination of women and aging in Brookner's unmistakable style. Universal themes, written beautifully. I just reread it, liked it even better the second time. Underlined half of the book, so much was worth going back for. Higest recommendation!
Rating: 1
Summary: Boring woman, boring book
Comment: Talk about comtemplating one's own navel! The narrator of this book is completely self-absorbed. She has no interests, and the greatest interest to the reader is noting how many times "I" appears in each paragraph. She seems to yearn for a meaningful connection with another person, but has nothing to offer a relationship. This is definitely someone who needs to "get a life". Anita Brookner's prose has been praised to the heavens, but I noted several jarring errors in sentence structure. Her vocabulary is admirable. Although I usually set aside a book that doesn't engage my interest, I seem to be continuing with this one with a kind of horrified compulsion.
Rating: 5
Summary: MICHAEL ACUNA IS ABSOLUTELY WRONG
Comment: RULES is an excellent book; Brookner an excellent writer--in fact, I find all her books except HOTEL DU LAC excellent; there is no better way to reflect on life than to read Brookner's books. If I could give RULES more stars to better its overall rating I would.
