Better Read in 1993,
By A Customer
This review is from: Notes from the Country Club (Paperback)
Notes From The Country Club by Kim Wozencraft -- written in 1993, this is a novel about a woman who eventually kills her abusive husband. The book opens with the reader finding her in the psychiatric evaluation section of a Texas jail. For about 2/3s of the book, Wozencraft did a good job of creating characters, a sense of mind and a sense of place. However, about the last 30-40 pages of the book were given over to polemnical-type statements/rants of paragraph-length coming from the characters. It was really tiresome and boring at that point. Part of the problem may be that what was news in 1993 no longer is vis-a-vis battered women. The other problem is stepping away from the character and deciding the reader needed some learnin' and doing it through lecturing the reader.
