Very disappointing,

This review is from: After the Cabaret (Paperback)
Such an interesting premise ... what happened to Sally Bowles after the Cabaret? What a disappointing execution of a potentially fascinating premise. Sally's conversion to Communism is impossible to swallow. From 'divine decadence' to Marxism? It makes little sense given any of the myriad characterizations of Sally, and the author does not deign to give us any possible reason for her revolutionary change in outlook. Part of her charm has been in her blindness to the political climate that, unbeknownst to her, shapes and guides her. After the Cabaret, in ignoring that tradition, leaves the reader with the impression that the author wanted to write a story that had nothing to do with the Isherwood, or Broadway, or Film images of Sally. The whole project smacks of an attempt to cash in on the Sally Bowles name; this book has nothing to do with the Sally I know. That combined with the boring, mudane, turgid, never-ending, meandering prose just killed this book for me. Don't waste your time.
