Review title: Yates Goes Deep for the Inner Angst of the 1950s
Product review: I lived this era and the East Coast couple is nothing like people I knew out here in the West. The author's prose is beautiful and he goes deep inside each character. Eight people are vividly described using 50s language; but with much deeper perspective that most writers developed back then. Unfortunately, when we learn what's going on inside people, it's painful. Those last dreadful moments brought no tears because the outcome seemed so logical. I'm convinced that these people weren't at all like people I knew back then; but much more interesting.
