Alex Hliv alexhliv — "Happy [reviews] are all alike..." Normally, that's true. This book is an exception. The eponymous Polysyllabic Spree, a cult-like editorial organization, forbade Nick Hornby from being too critical of books he reviewed. Occasionally he can’t help himself, in which cases the titles and authors of the books are dutifully expunged. The majority of the time we are left with a series of thoughtful, compelling and very positive essays chronicling Nick Hornby’s reading habits. You may never get around to actually reading the books that are reviewed here, but at least while you're reading Nick Hornby's infectious description of them, you will sure want to.

Gustavo Gonçalves gustavodgc — Really funny. The parts about Judaism ring pretty true. Characters are larger than life and I liked them.

Irene Trotta iretrtr — A couple that has been happily married for years and years (and years) suddenly hits a bump in the road in the form of (you guessed it) a younger woman. In a familiar story, she is a secretary who sets out to lure her boss from his wife. They have two grown daughters who are not married who are also involved: their lives are dramatically changed by the separation of their parents as well as other events happening in their personal lives. The wife, Betty, adopts the story that her she is a widow and "mourns" her "dead" husband, finding this easier to deal with than the thought that he is divorcing her after almost fifty years of marriage for his secretary. Even as he is assuring her that he is a very generous man, he is stripping her of as much of the money and property as possible, beginning with persuading her to move out of their (expensive) home, something that both daughters vehemently opposed. The three female Weissmans move into a cottage that a generous, well-off cousin offers them while the divorce details are sorted out. This book was interesting enough to keep me listening until the end to find out what happens to them all, but not compelling in a way that made me get too upset over the parts that I missed due to the CD skipping. Bottom line: a nice enough read, but you aren’t missing much if you pass it by.
