A review by zeltzamer
Winesburg, Ohio by Sherwood Anderson
I read about forty pages of this one almost exactly a year ago, but stopped for whatever reason. Rectified it I have. In fact, I serendipitously finished reading it just one day after the date I started it on last year. I guess that’s why they call them books.
Interesting with a (county) fair consistency, although I do wonder about one thing in particular; what’s with all the trembling? I got the “adventure” repetition of the town residents, but less explicable to me is it being Tremblecity. Shoulders tremble, voices, hands, possibly even ears at one point. Sometimes it’ll happen within the same paragraph. I know the Moderns did some odd things, but this is weird even by those standards. Did Sherwood write this in a sub-room temperature room? (Now that’s what I call repetition.)
