Excuse Me,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Day Gone by: Autobiography (Hardcover)
Actually, Adams goes right out and says that Hazel was based on a man he met durung his army service, so read closer next time, buddy.

Dull book, except for true Richard Adams' fans,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Day Gone By (Hardcover)
Adams autobiography plots along at a snail's pace as Adams describes in nauseatingly long detail about the plants and birds that lived in the area where he grew up. I suppose that this is exciting for people who enjoy nature walks and such.I labored through the book because I am a dedicated Adams fan. I have read every novel that he has ever written, and enjoyed them thoroughly. The Day Gone By is helpful if you want to get inside of Adams' head and figure out how he thinks. After reading the work, I think that Hazel, a character from Watership Down, may actually be a model for his father, to whom Adams was very close. Other observations about Adams' works can be gleaned by reading The Day Gone By. |
