This is the bloke who wrote three pages on the noise the wind makes when it blows through harebells. THREE! thats 3, yes, you read it right, iii. Shouldn't be allowed. Think of the trees!
He is trying too hard to write the epitome of a tragic novel and in doing so fails to make it a) believable, b) interesting and c) ...tragic
He should just stick to poetry.[\RANT]
I just typed that out twice. The computer crashed on me
