    Can't review it because I never got it.

    Why does B&N shipbooks via messenger and not by post or UPS like other companies? I've never had such trouble getting a book delivered. Also, why are B&N books cheaper online than if I actually visit a store? Might be time to cancel that B&N membership.

    Honest and wrenching

    Seldom do you read about a character who openly reveals himself as Coetzee has done. I read a review of this book in Oprah and was inspired to buy the book because I recognized the man in my own husband who has Asperger Syndrome. I know this was a "Fiction", but even so. A brave and interesting man.

    I Also Recommend:

    J.M. Coetzee the master

    If you've not read any of Coetzee's book, this will probably not be the one to begin with (Disgrace, Waiting for the Barbarians, etc should be more like it).
    Summertime is a brilliant book from Coetzee in the sense that it empowers him with the perspective to imagine his own life and he does that brilliantly, unflinchingly. Brainy, well-written (seeing that it is from a master writer) and subtly funny, this book belongs to a different level of fiction.
