A Tiny Silver Book 4

Revolutionary Road by Richard Yates

I, like the rest of you, had read reviews periodically about this book. One person calls it brilliant, a true look at life in the late 1950's. Another calls it depressing, a sad look at life in the late 1950's.
With the release of a movie version of Revolutionary Road, I decided to take the time and read the book.
I finished the book a couple of hours ago and I have to say, unlike most books, I do not feel like a better person for having read it. The tone is gritty, sticky and disagreeable. Arguing and simmering rage...should make for a very dramatic movie.
I might see it, I might not.
But if I do, I hope it doesn't leave me with a sense of hopelessness, like the book.
