Reading Comprehension

So that John Denver song about Jacques Cousteau in my last post, it got me thinking about the latest Richard Powers novel, which I’d read a few weeks ago but now I couldn’t remember its name. So, I Googled it (it was Playground) and happened to read a few random reviews, and I won’t post any spoilers but I found I completely misunderstood the entire book! Like, the entire point of the story went right over my head… I guess I’ll just have to give it a re-read.
