Review title: Enjoyable, But Not Quite Satisfying
Product review: I'll dispense with the summary of the story - the other reviews have covered that in detail already. What works about this novel is how Oates creates frail, unusual characters that we believe in and we care about, and that's enough to carry the story a long way. But ultimately, there are too many main characters and too many individual conflicts for any one to stand out and pull us over the falls to a satisfying or heartbreaking ending. The book peters out in the end rather than rising to a thunderous crescendo.
