> It looks to me that Drill is not properly converting array values in Parquet 
> records. I have created a simple example and will attach a simple Parquet 
> file to this issue. If I write Parquet records using the Avro schema
> {code:title=Book.avsc}
> { "type": "record",
>   "name": "Book",
>   "fields": [
>     { "name": "title", "type": "string" },
>     { "name": "pages", "type": "int" },
>     { "name": "authors", "type": {"type": "array", "items": "string"} }
>   ]
> }
> {code}
> I write two records using this schema into the attached Parquet file and then 
> simply run {{SELECT * FROM dfs.`books.parquet`}} I get the following result:
> ||title||pages||authors||
> |Physics of Waves|477|{"array":["William C. Elmore","Mark A. Heald"]}|
> |Foundations of Mathematical Analysis|428|{"array":["Richard 
> Johnsonbaugh","W.E. Pfaffenberger"]}|
> You can see that the authors column seems to be a nested record with the name 
> "array" instead of being a repeated value. If I change the SQL query to 
> {{SELECT title,pages,t.authors.`array` FROM 
> dfs.`/home/davek/src/drill-parquet-example/resources/books.parquet` t;}} then 
> I get:
> ||title||pages||EXPR$2||
> |Physics of Waves|477|["William C. Elmore","Mark A. Heald"]|
> |Foundations of Mathematical Analysis|428|["Richard Johnsonbaugh","W.E. 
> Pfaffenberger"]|
> and now that column behaves in Drill as a repeated values column.
