Journal Entry 1 by amyem from Cambridge, Massachusetts USA on Tuesday, February 12, 2008

This was an interesting read touching on issues of race, culture, and idenity but perhaps more ambitious than completely successful. It seems like this kind of story has been told before and perhaps in a more probing way. The main character, perhaps because he never really knows who he is and why things are happening to him, doesn't get much below the surface. His desire, in the second half of the book, to become competely English seems more about survival and trickery than some need to connect with something. It's a good and thought provoking read and hard to put down but ultimately a bit unsatisfying. I actually found the ending to be the strongest part, although I see some reviewers found that the weakest.

Journal Entry 4 by fzhasan from Cambridge, Massachusetts USA on Thursday, April 03, 2008

An interesting story and very well written and well researched book. I found my interest waning and felt it was a little tedious towards the end. I was o.k. with the ending though but I would have like to have seen the hero find himself and resolve his identity issues more concretely.
