This is a classic book that is part of "Oprah's Book Club." I gave it three stars because I do see some merit in the book. It has been translated from the original German text. It is well written yet the plot seems vague and loosely formed. The style of the author somewhat reminds me of the style of The Virgin Suicides. I know that this book is being turned into a movie, probably thanks to Oprah. The author gives the reader some play in how we will interpret the book. The style is different that what I'm used to but I definitely see the merit of The Reader.
