As a reading experience, it was fine. It could be that Hell is simply no longer interesting. That Dante doesn’t offer much in the way of character or real philosophy. Instead, he uses his tale as an opportunity to bash those he deems his political/re ...more

There's nothing really wrong with it, it's just kind of empty and dull by the end. Some of the juicer threads don't amount to much, and I'm left wondering why it was written at all. ...more

I'm a big fan of Brock Clarke's previous novels, Exley and The Happiest People in the World, and was thrilled to see he had written another one. Who Are You, Calvin Bledsoe? plays in those same waters as Clarke's previous works, but might be the least ...more
