Title: Surprisingly Dull
Product review: You would think a book filled with adultery, pornography, and pedophilia would be compelling or at least disturbing-- anything but boring. Sadly, boring, more than anything, is what it is. The book's characters are flat and almost uniformly unsympathetic. Almost nothing, from the dialogue to the adult "children" of the title, to the actual children, to the situations, from the most mundane to the most bizarre, rang true. The ending, which I won't reveal, was both anticlimactic and totally bizarre, which is quite a feat, I suppose. It's not a terrible book, and, unlike some reviewers, I didn't find it offensive, but I definitely won't be reading it again.
