Title: Don't bother.
Product review: I'm afraid that it's a pretty bad book. The characters were utterly shallow and cartoonish, especially the men. Instead of giving the men names, the author could have just called 'em The Rapist, The Bad Father, The Bad Man, and The Good Man. Or he could have collectively named them The Straw Men. How much more interesting it would have been if Dante and what's his name -- The Good Man -- had been a single character. That would have given some heft to Dolores' decision to stay or go. Although Dolores was better sketched, she was still only allowed (by the author) to have one defining trait at any giving time.There was simply nothing creative about this book. Anyone could have written it.For all the reviewers out there who can't believe a man could have written such a great female character, check out Norman Rush's "Mating." A much, much better example.
