Title: Blue Ending
Review: Up until the last two chapters, I experienced the book as a slyly hysterical, mocking story under the sure hand of a woman of exceptional wit and observation. Then the story suddenly turned into a grimly obvious tale fatalistically propounding some blandly literal but morally obscure stance. The ending was tonally false. What a turn-around! I feel like a writing teacher seduced into thinking the author had some real talent only to have my judgment completely bashed at final exam time. Weird feeling.
