A review by obscuredbyclouds
A Theatre for Dreamers by Polly Samson

2.0

I had two reasons for reading this: being curious about what kind of writer David Gilmour's wife is when she's not penning lyrics for horrible songs - and wanting to read fan fiction about Leonard Cohen and some young authors in the 60s on a Greek island. The writing is fine, but I found it rather detached and could not connect to the main characer - or the side characters floating by. Seminal plot points were done away with really quickly while unimportant things went on for pages. What I did like were the descriptions of the island. I've never really been interested in travelling to Greek islands, but now I suddenly am. But definitely not in the summer!
