3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, November 12, 2010

This review is from: Requiem for the East (Paperback)
The last four chapters are a total let down, and the end is a disappointment. I had read two previous novels by Makine, and I thoroughly enjoyed them. This is did not live up to the promise. And if the author believes that not providing a real ending makes the novel more interesting, he is, in my humble opinion, totally wrong.

One more detail: If anybody comes to an American hospital with a wound caused by a firearm, the hospital would immediately report this to the authorities. So, the hero (or anti-hero, if you prefer) wouldn't be left alone in a hospital room. Obviously, Makine does not know much about the USA.
