Book Reviews of the Paint It Black: A Novel
Customer Review: Winner About a Self-Perceived Loser
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved this book.
Although Josie is a hard-core, difficult young woman, her pain is real.
Fitch weaves Josie's present pain into the story of her love, the story of her childhood, and the story of her coming to terms with herself.
I thought this book might be too painful to read, but instead, it is mesmerizing, beautiful, and deeply involving. Los Angeles is depicted in its various neighborhoods. The prose is clear and brilliant, and except for Josie's need for it and the difficulties of Michael's mother, nothing is "Painted . . . Black."
