Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Dan Roam

i approached this book with a pretty clean slate: it had been recommended by my sister (typically of good taste, natch) and i enjoy memoirs. reason 'nuff. i knew there was controversy surrounding its factual integrity, but hadn't read about that specifically. i also knew the book ought to stand on its own from a literary perspective, with or without controversy, so proceeded an open (eager?) mind. i don't know which aspects of the book were exaggerated by the author; frankly, NONE of it felt authentic to me. as a reader i was uninvested in his "struggle" and i rarely felt like any of the gruesome things that happened in the book were anything but choices the author made, never situations of circumstance or mistake or chance. nonetheless, frey patted himself on the back fairly consistently throughout this book for overcoming each self-constructed obstacle. i can't say i sympathized with his 'achievements' at any point; he was kind of a jerk to anyone who tried to help him, and subsequently (and thanklessly) took said person's help every single time. i felt like every sentence written in the book was an attempt at memorializing himself as a hero to anyone who'd listen. additionally, i couldn't help but read his dialogue as anything but the same tacky brevity of that during a shootoff in a western movie (james frey cast conveniently as the star/hero/tough guy, of course.) why is this book as widely-received as it is? i'm puzzled. maybe this memoir should have been filed under 'mystery.'
