Title: Can't I give more stars than 5?
Product review: It's rare that I've missed a book so much on finishing it. A great concept ... updating Homer while keeping some of the mystery of the time. Wonderfully, humanely, relishingly gay. No pretension whatsoever in this for me ... just a lovely guy writing beautifully and cleanly, daring his imagination to break the bounds. Well done to St Martin's for publishing it so well ... it's a handsome book. If you're in any doubt at all about this book but feel tempted to give it a go ... then please do. The best book I have read in a long time ... his American Studies is deligthful too, somewhat akin to this in its relationship between an old and young man with illness part of the game, though this takes the whole thing deeper. One of our very best writers, I reckon.
