Title: Even a satire must have depth
Review: Even a satire needs characters with whom the reader can become involved and sympathize. Unfortunately, no realistic, or sympathetic characters exist in Blue Angel. Even Sherrie, the main character's wife, is so loosely drawn that you don't care if her husband cheats on her. Also, there is no moment in the book where you "get" that she has suspected him all along. And frankly, the subject of sexual harassment is too important and too sensitive to be satirized in such a pathetic fashion. I didn't even finish this book. I just put it down, thankfully, in a dusty and far removed corner of my at-home library.
Is the review positive or negative?
