The Pianist (Piyanist)
Boorriinngg. I don't know what happened to this book. I was riveted to Ben Bova's MARS when I first read it, and was so sad when it ended, and then so happy with the sequel, and then I couldn't believe it when I saw this book on the shelf at the library. Gah! It's dull, dull, dull. I've caught wind of Ben Bova's nervousness about the coming New Morality, and I've encountered it in some of his other books (SATURN, maybe) but I didn't realize it's his thing now. It's a preposterous, overly complicated projection and it already feels dated. Of COURSE the greenhouse effect stuff is coming out of the global warming news and the Al Gore stuff. Of COURSE a religious fundamentalist government is in direct response to George W. Bush's presidency, but the dude was only ever going to be in office for eight years. Did people really, seriously believe that religious fundamentalists were going to take over? Come on, people. It's fun to wring hands, but to base the premise of a book about Mars on it? Plus that business with the rapist/professor stuff was dumb and unnecessary (can't people just be jerks anymore), and the anxiety about funding archaeology on Mars when Florida's going underwater and the world is dealing with displaced refugees seems misplaced. It's not like there's a time crunch for digging up fossils on a world with no weather, and it's not like you need religion to give people reasons to spend money on Earth if the seas are really rising that fast. And I love Mars as much as anyone. But this book is contrived, silly, too agenda-driven (and such a dated agenda), and--as stated above--BORING. I am so sad about this story. So sad. I had such high hopes and all of them are dashed. Dashed, I say. Dashed.

Oskar Schell is an obsessed little guy who is trying to find the lock to the key his father had. Oskar's father died in the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Towers and through Oskars diligence and creative exploring he meets many people who deal with tragedy in their own way. This book uncovers a cross-section of America and the beauty of her 'open door' policy. Richly written, a little hard to follow, but an incredible journey.
