Goodreads review by Jeff on June 20, 2015

For the writer this is an exemplarily crafted novel. I'm reading it while refreshing myself with craft with Stein's ON WRITING. I liked the way he told this story from the multiple perspectives in the first person. It helped me in forming my own novel. It is an entertaining novel, don't get me wrong......more
