Title: Irritating, finally
Product review: I started out really looking forward to this book, but was sorely disappointed. The main character, Woody, is self-indulgent and sexually immoral, though a kind father. I found all the characters unlikable to a degree. They are privileged and have no idea how privileged they are. I got bored half-way through and skimmed ahead to the end. I also was really tired of descriptions of Italian food, jazz/blues music, academic life, Italy and ancient things. The graphic sex descriptions were a lot more than was necessary too. By the middle I didn't care about anybody.
