You can find this book on the Harvard list of the 100 greatest novels of all time. I had never heard of it, and honestly, I'm quite surprised. The book has all those classical themes that would go perfectly in a high school or college English class: the rise and fall of an American family, industrialization, hubris, dark suspense and a not entirely happy or unhappy ending
I swung back and forth from loving the book to hating it. But, it wasn't actually me loving or hating the book it was more me loving or hating the characters. OH the incense I felt for Georgie Amberson Minafer, and then he goes and totally surprises you!
I recommend it.
