Book review: Let Me Be Frank With You
Let Me Be Frank With You is a pensive contemplation of life, death and the human condition by Pulitzer prize-winner Richard Ford.
As with his previous novels, it’s an examination of the zeitgeist of the American Dream through the eyes of the dryly-funny, real estate salesman Frank Bascombe. But now, nearly 25 years on, in the fourth of the hugely acclaimed series, Frank is retired and living a quiet life in the suburbs. Despite a few grumbles about his advancing age and deteriorating body, he has largely found peace.
