Review title: The essence of this book is longing.
Product review: This book is a beautiful exploration of the fantastic that, while not as good as the classic Anubis Gates or the masterful Last Call, isn't far behind them. The phenomenon of 'Bar Time' alone is a fascinating detail (one of literally _hundreds_ that dot this story) and one that brings to mind recent physics experiments in 'synchronicity' that used photons to demonstrate connections across vast space.Powers goes one better; he demonstrates connections across the gulf of death. From the exodus of Edison/Kootie across a nightmarish LA to the arrangment of tv antennas and electrical wiring to allow a dead man to maintain his hold on his body undisturbed by those that would literally 'consume' him, to the cost of ghost-eating as a habit, this book flinches very rarely. Powers is one of the best.
