Title: who cares
Review: I read this book, because it was recommended by a friend. After reading the opening story about the "Shot Heard Round the World", I was prepared for an amazing book. But to my disappointment, it turned out to be boring and convoluted. I get was this book is about--a deconstructive look at the American psyche during the cold war period. It is a loosely tied together set of stories--glimpses into people's lives really--linked by the number 13, a baseball, nuclear war and garbage. But who cares? For all of the author's witty prose and random occurences, the book does not do what it should--tell a story. The author could have made the book 400 pages or so and done the same thing. Instead, he gets too caught up in his deconstructionist experiment. Don't read it unless you have a lot of patience and time on your hands.
