Negative Positive
Title: Yatesian to the end
Review: Richard Yates is stranger than fiction, which makes for fascinating reading. The amount of misery he himself endured, and the pain he inflicted on those around him are incomprehensible. Richard Yates's mental and physical comebacks are the amazing part of his life story. And the remarkable disconnects--his books are about self-deception, but their insights seemed to have eluded him in life.
