Negative Positive
Title: Transportive and cinematic
Review: An homage to Fitzgerald -- like Nick Carraway, this narrator, Mike Jamison, entangles himself in the lives of the affluent from his view from a rented boathouse on Long Island. This story transports you to another time, when war was raw, and heroics and vanity ruled the day. The story reminded me of my own dream summers. Super-snappy dialogue, and so visually descriptive that I couldn't help imagining a movie version as I read -- especially the crisp polo scene and the Southampton parties. This book centers on the hero's vision. Watch it bloom.
