The Dinner by Herman Koch

This book has won awards and received praise in many reviews.  Hmmmm.  Not in my review.  I liked the beginning and saw a lot of potential in the first half, but then I realized that these characters are crazy and evil.  And even if the book is to show how parents will do anything to protect their children even if they commit violent crimes - well, I guess this parent thinks that what they are doing is immoral.  So does the author want us to agree with them?  Or are we just supposed to continue yelling at the book?  I'm not sure, but I don't recommend this one.  -June
