Review title: a drink called paradise
Product review: i have been to this part of the world recently and felt it offered a lot for a novel. the story line, such as it is, had a lot of potential. other reviews warned about the preoccupation with sex. apparently the author is either obsessed to the exclusion of everything else or thinks that just mentioning sex every other page, without any subtlety or romance, sells. the stream of consciousness style works some of the time, but., most of the time simply does not flow and jerks along incoherently. the characters are not dimensional. it could have been a good book...if someone else would have written it.
