3.0
Admittedly, this isn’t my usual type of book as I’m not much into philosophy and allegorical fiction. It started out well for me, but about 3/4 of the way through I just lost interest. All of a sudden, Jonathan’s interactions with Truth went from being a curious interlude in Jonathan’s life to just being sad. I felt like Truth was cruel, taking a man who was already feeling poor about his life and then showing him what he had missed and misunderstood. I guess I was hoping for an Ebeneezer Scrooge or George Bailey-esque turnaround in Jonathan’s life, and that’s just not what was in store for him. However, if you like this sort of explorative fiction, you will probably like this.
