Book Review: Paul Toth

January 14, 2010

Finale is Michigan writer Paul Toth’s third novel. It’s a story of travel and of re-visiting the past. The main character in the book is quite the pathetic man; so much so that he’ll boost anyone’s ego who reads this book. His life is that sad.

The book teaches the reader vague lessons about life and love and effort. And while I found some of the style to be forcefully literary, the drive of the plot helped me enjoy this story for what it was. Finale is an interestingly designed book, and for those curious enough to check it out, I suggest you go with your impulses.
