Book 759 Goran Tunstrom – The Christmas Oratorio

 

Argh! I just finished one disappointing book only to face ANOTHER let down, the worst thing is that generally I like books in this vein.

Solveig is trampled by a herd of cows, while on her way to sing in a choir performing Bach’s Christmas Oratorio and her husband cannot  cope with this loss. As a result he moves away and his action effects  two generations of his family, in the most complex way possible.

Sounds great but i found the novel to be quite tedious at times but thankfully the chapters are short and I was able to read it at a good pace.

Lets hope I wont have a hat trick of dull books!
