All Flesh is Grass by Clifford D. Simak
2.0
Some interesting ideas, not least of which is the similarity to Stephen King's The Dome (but written decades earlier) but tiring characters and flat dialogue failed to hook my interest.
While it shared themes with his other novel that I liked, Way Station, All Flesh is Grass just seemed to miss the mark. The writing seemed to be worse, but that may have been because of the increased amount of dialogue. Lastly, seeing things through the main character's eyes was just tiring. In his own words, what a heel.
