A Complicated Kindness by Miriam Toews


I just finished Miriam Toews "A Complicated Kindness". I was very disappointed as I felt like it was a "Seinfeld" episode--I kept waiting for something to happen. While it was interesting to learn about Mennonite life, the plot never developed. As I hate to let a book defeat me I finished it, but since it had won awards I was expecting a lot more. All in all--disappointing.
