Title: The nadir of 80's/90's fiction
Review: This is the epitome of 90's minimalism: impeccably written, utterly devoid of heart or soul. There isn't one risky sentence in this book: it's all so careful, so risk-free, so . . . dead. If you're into the whole Ron Carlson/Richard Ford thing, go for it. Otherwise, look elsewhere for rich, challenging fiction.
