Title: 80% Suburbia 20% Drug Hallucinations
Review: I'm beginning to regard Ellis as the voice of generation X, but this slice of wealthy family life topped with a scoop of Dean Koontz never quite gels (like "Imperial Bedrooms" never quite blends it's famous characters with the movie industry.) Ellis has stunning powers of observation and fascinating literary language, but often struggles to tie them into a resonant conclusion. Still, it does have important things to imply about marriage and raising children today.
