"Choice" fiction - Sophie's Choice

Date of Review:  Feb 26, 2000
Review: "Sophie's Choice" is an outstanding work of fiction by William Styron. I first read this book for one of my high school English classes. At the time, it was a bit of a struggle to get through as the book is 626 pages of tiny print. However, once I...

Choices

Date of Review:  Jan 12, 2002
The Bottom Line: It's worth checking out simply because it's one of those books that people always talk about.
Review: On the back cover of the book, it says the following:
"Once or twice in a generation, an astonishing novel reminds us of the staggering and beautiful experience we can find in the best of fiction."

I think Sophie's Choice could have...

SOPHIE, NOT MY CHOICE

Date of Review:  Mar 4, 2005
The Bottom Line: Break out your thesauras if you want to read this and dont plan anything else for awhile.
Review: Sophies Choice is a novel told through the eyes of a young southerner, Stingo, who moves to Brooklyn in 1947. There he meets his neighbors, Sophie and Nathan. The story revolves around Stingo trying to write a book and his friendship with Sophie and...

Sophie's Choice- Don't Choose It

Date of Review:  Jul 29, 2005
The Bottom Line: Skip this book and read another piece of Holocaust literature instead.
Review: First let me say a few things... I have never seen the movie so this review is based solely on the book and is in no way a comparison of book and film.

Secondly, I am not a professional critic so I will do my best here to explain why I...

Heartbreaking Holocaust tragedy

Date of Review:  Apr 18, 2000
Review: "Sophie's Choice" is one of the great novels of the century, a blend of tragedy and humor, that perfectly evokes Brooklyn, Tidewater Virginia, and Auschwitz within its pages.

Stingo is a Southerner. Aspiring to be the next Faulkner, he...

Date of Review:  Jan 1, 2000
Review: "Sophie's Choice", by William Styron, takes the reader deep into New York city in the post war 1950s. Through the narrator, we are introduced not only to the healing of a nation and a people, but to the new struggles which have been inherited by the...

It's my choice!

Date of Review:  Apr 6, 2000
Review: Sophie's Choice made me think about the freedom we take for granted in the United States. Sophie's Choice is about a women that must choose between her son or daughter. This is during a war, and she must abadon one of the children. The book is a...
