Amazon.com ReviewOprah Book Club® Selection, June 1998: What if you were a 40-year-old housepainter, horrifically abused, emotionally unavailable, and your identical twin was a paranoid schizophrenic who believed in public self-mutilation?

I enjoyed this book. It is the February choice for our book club. We are meeting to discuss it this morning.

Ugh, I Thought It Would Never End
This is the most overrated book I have ever read. I kept waiting for it to get interesting and it just never did.

three and a half stars: Abusive men, twins, rabbits and monkeys

I Tried. Really.
Right off I have to apologize to my writers’ group for this review of Wally Lamb’s I Know This Much is True. I gave it a shot. I did.
