review 1: The sad and very poignant story of Jack Levitt, who starts his life in an orphanage and struggles his whole life to rise above the hand that fate has dealt him. It's not a pretty story contained within these pages. It deals with the down and out, the poolhalls the hustlers and seedier aspects of life. But it's also a book of mateship, love and redemption that are found found where Jack least expects it.Jack's struggle against fate, his anger, his search for meaning and his relationship with Billy is told beautifully and honestly.It's a sad and melancholy novel but one that will draw you into Jack's world and stay with you. Take a chance on this novel, you'll be surprised.
review 2: Nunca he entendido cuál es la diferencia entre una novela de costumbres y negr... morea, lo que sí es que Carpenter nos obsequia en esta historia un retrato de los bajos fondos del medio oeste norteamericano. El antihéroe es un chico huérfano, que por su torpeza e inexperiencia acaba en la cárcel estatal luego de una tremenda fiesta. Carpenter conoce el lenguaje de los blancos desempleados, de los negros reprimidos y el sentido del honor entre los criminales. Mitad novela carcelaria, mitad novela negra, Antes de que la lluvia caiga es una de esas joyas son difíciles de encontrar. less
