Title: Trite and depressing
Product review: This book uses stereotypical characters and cliched settings to create a tragedy of errors in suburbia. The author tackles racism, parenting, literary pretensions, fiscal irresponsibility, artistic ambition, neuroses, competitive spouses, office politics, corporate mergers, and anomie using characters who are no more than shells of real people. The characters revolve around the plot, rather than the plot weaving the characters together. The book is completely unbelievable - it would make an excellent Lifetime movie. All I got for my time was a severe case of reading indigestion.
