Dream of Bland Prose

I dreamed I found a book on my shelves by XXXX, a Spanish friend. I began to read it and it had a good deal of French mixed in randomly at the beginning of phrases. I began thinking how insufferably bland the writing was; then I woke up and realized that was my actual opinion of my friend's writing. I had bought several books by him in Spain on this last trip and realized that I didn't really think he had a lot to say in his prose.
