From the moment I opened this book and read the first page I knew that I recognized the style. In looking at the other books that the author has written I found out why. Years and years ago, I read another book by him: Bambi. One can definitely tell that this book was written in a different era given its language and overall tone. Unlike Bambi though, this book was rather unpleasant. It was one long meandering without purpose. The only real message within the book that seemed to come across is that life in the zoo is torturous. Well, maybe that's true, but a plot would still be nice.
