Play, as opposed to a mere adaptation of one, has been The Lion King. Like everything in life and in this book, the ending is complex and bittersweet, which makes it satisfying in a way that most works, including those by William Shakespeare himself, are not.Īdmit, the closest that I’ve ever come to a complete retelling of a Shakespeare I cannot discuss why without giving too much away, but I will say this: for those who are tired of tragedies the likes of Romeo’s and Juliet’s demises will be pleased, but those who hate happily ever afters will not be disappointed, either. The ending in particular fits my tastes much better than that of any Shakespearean tale. In fact, I’d argue that I like Odell’s Fall much, much better. Odell’s Fall by Norman Bacal certainly lives up to its predecessor, William Shakespeare’s Othello. More complicated than anyone could imagine. High-profile crime-and even he isn’t sure of his innocence. Questions every relationship he has, and he becomes the number one suspect in a Grata, Odell’s whole life is thrown into flux. Little does Odell know, his father-in-law’s objections to his and Dee’s interracial union are but the beginning of his troubles.Ī murder in his home changes him from the firm’s golden boy to persona non Yet the General has a secret, a soft side that could very well be his downfall: his blushing bride, Dee Brabant, daughter of racist Senator Brabant of Alabama.

It is no surprise that a man like him was born from the ashes of a tragic past. When his eyes darken, you know that the General is about to go to war. After all, you don’t come by the nickname “The General” by accident. Everyone aspires to be him and envies him all at once. Odell Moore is one of the top lawyers at his firm. It’s already shaping up to be an interesting year, so why don’t we leave the world behind for a while and dive into some fictional problems instead? Today I want to bring you a review for a very interesting–albeit high-tension–novel called Odell’s Fall by Norman Bacal. That means that tomorrow’s Friday, and we’re almost to the end of another week.
