Good, but kind of hard to follow if you keep putting it down and picking it back up, as the characters tend to swap names/bodies/timelines a lot.
I read this book in one sitting. I literally did not move once I started reading. I'm not sure what it was actually, but the pull from Enzo (the dog!) was strong. I really enjoyed this book.
Another good book gives details of how the Vietnam War and the Cambodia Tragedy affected both countries in a horrific way; seen thru the eyes of a French journalist.
An elegant, pre-adolescent Bildungsroman of sorts, a sort of urban-poetic mural of artistic perception and familial love. While reading Call It Sleep, I had the feeling of being in the presence of the most unassuming literary genius I'd never heard much about. Though the linguistic characteristics are fairly interesting, it's the wholly authentic rendering of David's inner struggles and the portrayal of mother-son love that make the book great. Thanks, Will!
