3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Lets hope this is only the beginning of more novels from Freedman!! By Bruce Davis Freedman makes reading fun, more then fun- delicious! You can't stop turning the pages wanting to taste more and more! His words pull you into characters including the ones you wouldn't ordinarily want to know. The clear, open hearted style, makes the novel alive. You want to know more and more when suddenly your are dropped into your own stuff, desires, worries, dreams, life. This book is destined to win awards because Freedman is gifted. This book dances, plays, and enjoys everything human. Isn't this what a good novel should do? Lets hope there are many more to come!
2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. The Last Brazil of Benjamin East By R. Koppel The novel is engaging and Benjamin East is unforgettable: a complicated, and sympathetic character who captured and kept my interest. The prose is clear, smart, funny, and knowing. The insistent search for meaning shines through.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A highly engaging, colorful and heartwarming story, wonderful to read By Doris Apt The last Brazil of Benjamin East is a wonderful book. I loved it from the first page on. The characters are so well described that I literally could picture and sympathize with all of them. I read this book while cruising the waters of Alaska and when I read the parts that play in the Amazon, I forgot about the cold waters and glaciers around me as it felt like cruising through the jungle of the Amazon. The story is great, complex but easy to follow. The ups and downs of hope and disappointment are nicely brightend up with a good sense of humor (I loved the bird stories). I always wanted to know where the expression Big Apple came from, what a nice answer Jonathan provided in this book ;-). I highly recommend this book as it is wonderful to read.
