Title: Drivel about people who miss the 60's
Review: Attracted by Turow's other legal thrillers, I undertook this massive tome with optimism. His technique was to alternate chapters about a current, intriguing murder case, and flashbacks to the main characters' life in the 60's - they have miraculously all been reunited in the current courtroom drama. I found myself bored to tears about the flashbacks, awaiting the legal case to resume. If you miss the 60's and the campus unrest of the time, you may enjoy this. I found myself bored and irritated with almost all the characters; I kept waiting for something profound to be revealed, but it never happened. Skip it.
