Suzanne GlassRezensionen

The Interpreter is all style and no substance: unfortunately, alternating chapters from two narrators sound almost identically and preciously lovely. I read about 70 pages but just couldn't go further. The book just isn't at all compelling.

I'm a former medical interpreter, so thought I might find something interesting about the interpreting profession... I found instead an over-reliance on the cliched idea that interpreters don't have their own voices. Maybe the interpreter-narrator does find her voice later in the book, but Glass, alas, just couldn't keep me interested enough to find out.
