Review # 1 was written on 2021-03-17 00:00:00 Michel St-louis very disappointing. A Woman of Substance is my favorite book, but this biography was not. The author spent most of the time trying to figure out if Barbara's grandmother's father was royalty. He spent a lot of time talking about the history of certain places, which was mildly interesting, but I really don't care what happened in 1452 or whenever. I didn't feel like I knew anything more about Barbara Taylor Bradford that I didn't already know. It was a chore to finish reading it. |
Review # 2 was written on 2021-01-02 00:00:00 Paul Baert Exhausted by reading this tome about Barbara Talyor Bradford, whose interesting life is barely discernable amidst all the overblown historical detail, cod psychology and lengthy excerpts from her novels offered up by this biographer. Admittedly it would have been a slim volume without all this, but one which I would have preferred, after spending so much time skipping through the padding in search of actual information. The author is also on very dodgy ground in drawing analogies between Barbara's work and her life: fiction is not reality. |
