Review title: Close to perfect!
Product review: It's been a long time since I read a novel that I found so completely absorbing. In this fresh take on a returning prodigal son, Joe's voice has the perfect combination of sensitivity and wit, never (or almost never)overdoing either one. The characters are fully realized and the dialogue is authentic and often hysterically funny. Whether it's a 33 year old man coming to terms with his own poor character or an eighteen year old boy feeling the pangs of unrequited love, the author makes it moving, honest and very funny. And unlike so many other books in this genre, Tropper seems out to move with substance, rather than impress with style. I was truly sorry to finish it, and look forward to his next one.
