Munich Airport

Examination. The first person narrator of Greg Baxter’s finely written novel titled, Munich Airport, grieves the death of his sister, laments the decline of his elderly father and ruminates about his own life. The psychological problems among the characters in this novel are more than enough for any family. What redeems the gloomy subject is Baxter’s fine writing, and the ways in which he captures the process of introspection and self-examination. Fans of literary fiction will enjoy this prose, and those readers who like psychological fiction will spend much time reflecting about the lives of these characters. By setting the action in an airport, Baxter highlights the existential loneliness that can be felt while physically present with many other people.
