99. Run


By Ann Patchett
Rated 3 1/2 Stars

Ann Patchett is a hit and miss author for me but even when she hits I don't really understand her books. She writes way over my head I guess.

Run is a story about aproximately 24 hours in the life of an X-politician (white). One of his two adopted children (both black) is hit by a car and the story is about how the accident affects all the different characters in the book. While I am enjoying it I have wondered a couple of times why Ann Patchett found it necessary to write this book. I really had to reach once or twice to suspend my disbelief.
