Barbary Shore is an interesting story, to say the least. The characters are quite unique and the storyline is somewhat dull.
Each character is fighting their own battles while all living under the same roof. None of them are friends, but are amiable with one another.
While I find all the characters interesting, I am most intrigued by Hollingsworth. For one, he exudes a suave personality from the way he converses with others and the way he dresses. He is also very inquisitive and often appears suspicious to some of the other characters. Though Hollingsworth intrigues me the most, the other characters have their own quirks that make them interesting.
I suppose my main questions are:
What was the author trying to accomplish here? Why are the characters so vastly different from one another? Are the characters supposed to buttress the plot or argument of the novel?
