Review title: A true all-American snoozefest
Product review: Mallon is a fine critic and a lively esaayist, but he should avoid fiction at all costs. This boring novel reeks of research and intellectualism but lacks the passion to make it of human interest. Histiry buffs might enjoy, but the rest of us? No way.
