Title: Talk is cheap - just read it.
Review: Underworld is very appealing if you've got an interest in America's recent history and the discipline to assimilate one writer's fictional interpretation of it. Do not make the mistake of reading so many reviews that you become concerned with the book's length or it's "literary significance," whatever that means. Forget the comparisons to Joyce. Forget the book awards it "should have" won. Just enjoy the story - it has more redeeming value than any sitcom I've seen lately and it might just help you generate some meaningful discussion around the dinner table. What are the challenges for our country in a more dangerous/volatile post-Cold War world? How do we teach our children to embrace both success and failure in the midst of an absurdly superstar-obsessed culture? A great companion read for Underworld is David Halberstam's The Fifties. Don't overthink this book - just read it, reflect on it and move on to the next one...
