Title: An Absolutely Terrible Book !
Review: Swofford has himself confused with a narrative writer (someone who organizes and communicates a coherent body of experiential information). According to the duskjacket he has taught at several colleges and had his works appear in major literary publications but one would imagine this book to be the stream of consciousness ravings of a junior high school male. If this book is to believed, the only thing established as fact is that Swofford is the guy you pray gets assigned as far away from yourself as possible. Skip this book.
