A review by scottsolomonwriter
Look Homeward, Angel by Thomas Wolfe

3.0

As a resident of North Carolina, I felt obligated to read this novel. Although Wolfe was ahead of his time in portraying small town life, the multiple adjectives and adverbs loading his sentences make for a long slog. Were Wolfe in an MFA program today, he would be scolded for a lack of strong verbs. He would also be urged to do a search for words ending in ly via his word processor.
