nuhafariha 's review for:
American War
by Omar El Akkad
DID NOT FINISH: 35%
To be brutally honest, I did not finish this book at this time.
The style of writing felt very jarring to me - this is a book set in 2075, but the writing and pacing of the main narrative portions feels like it's from the 1930's.
I did appreciate the parataxis of found material against the storyline, it felt very interesting to get different viewpoints on the issue from the main character, and provided a fuller picture of the setting.
