Book Reviews of the Caribbean
Customer Review: JUST OKAY, MICHENER ON HIS DOWNWARD SLIDE
Summary: 3 Stars
I picked this up hoping it would be like CENTENNIAL--which I thoroughly enjoyed. Though JM focuses on the Caribbean he does not stick with a family or families as he has in the past. There are only tenuous threads to connect the chapters. I would say the book gets better as it moves along but I still found it disappointing over all. Many of the chapters were interesting and compelling, but just as it was building up the chapter ended and it was on to new characters on a different island.
