Title: "Deliverance" without the Charm
Product review: This is simply the worst book I've ever made myself finish. The world sketched here has not one sympathetic character and is filled with evil intent and vile actions. I could not have conceived of scenes with 10 year old girls raped by a bear, hunters debating whether to copulate with a deer, little girls dancing naked for a leering crowd where no one thought such an act either disgusting nor sad. Did I mention the torture scene? Oh, yeah, it is here too. And all of this is delivered up in tired phrasing and confused staging. It does give me some insight into the imagination of the man behind the man behind the man that has brought us abu ghriab and guantanamo. That is the only reason I can see to read this book (and it was my reason). If there were a prison for bad writing, Libby would be doing a life term.
