Premium Review Sorry, that's only my opinion (320 words)

I have browsed Russian internet in search of criticism for Paolo Coelho's ...Rio Piedra... All in vain. Russian readers praise him and his books ferociously. Instead, in the English-speaking part of internet I've found several reviews expressing opinions very close to mine. So this is what I think: Coelho's literature language in most of his books (except for the Alchemist, maybe) is shallow and mediocre, his ideas naive; The writer puts across the universally acknowledged truths as something new and insightful; The characters and the plot of the book lack realism and it makes it hard to accept the book's main ideas and summary. The heroine of ...Rio ...

By the River Piedra, I Sat Down and Wept - Paulo Coelho

Crowned Review A Mills and Boon Effort! (1184 words)
by Smile - written on 28/03/01 (Very useful, 714 readings)
Rating:

I do not doubt that Paulo Coelho has talent; after reading “The Alchemist” I realised some his literary skills and thought-provoking ideas are worthy of praise. So I picked up another of his novels, “By The River Piedra I Sat Down & Wept” (1994), and eventually put it down sourly disappointed! Coelho markets this one as an arduous yet inspiring journey which revolves around love. However, merely to finish reading the novel potential readers might find themselves on a voyage as laborious and gruelling as climbing a mountain, only to find the view from the summit far from inspirational. The story centres on the relationship between a man ...

Premium Review The Devil and Miss Prym (925 words)
by Whitehorse - written on 23/06/03 (Very useful, 2041 readings)
Rating:

being on this earth would be willing to commit evil" The Devil and Miss Prym is one of the highly successful spiritual novels by Brazilian born Paulo Coelho. It is last in the trilogy that concentrates on a week in the life of a person and the life-changing occurrence that can happen in so short a time. The first two books in the trilogy are By the River Piedra, I Sat Down and Wept and Veronika Decides to Die. It seems hard to believe that when Coelho first presented The Alchemist (the novel that made him famous all over the world) his then publishing company were not particularly impressed . After only 900 copies were sold they decided not to run a reprint. It ...
