Title: So disappointing! It's a novel, not a biography.
Product review: I was intrigued when I read about Morris' unconventional approach, and looked forward to the book. But once I got into it, "Dutch" made me angry. It's not biography. It's a fictional tale about an extremely self-centered writer, with Ronald Reagan kind of flickering around in the background. The most self-indulgent and infuriating part of the book is when Morris spends two pages telling us how successful his Roosevelt biography was in 1980 -- but only offers half a page on the fascinating presidential election that year. Morris is much more interested in himself than in Reagan or U.S. history.I'm almost tempted to ask for my money back.
