Being an oddball from Ohio myself, I should have really enjoyed this book. I could relate to aspects of each character. However, Sherwood Anderson's deadpan narration failed to hold my attention as I read it. It was evident why he didn't have much commercial success after Winesburg Ohio was published.

An intriguing piece of working class fiction by Anderson. Even better than his novel Kit Brandon.

Good listening for English major or fans of the era of rather depressing stories.

Winesburg, Ohio is considered by many to be Sherwood Anderson's best book. It's a collection of short stores about the people in Winesburg, Ohio, who confide their hopes, dreams, fear, etc, to George Willard, a young reporter.

It's a series of portraits of the people in fictional Winesburg, so it's not a plot-driven book, but rather one that invokes a sense of place & time.

I feel like a traitor to the lit community for only giving this book 2 stars. I tried SOOOOO hard to like it. I really did. I just didn't care for the literary style, characters or stories.
