| I love Colson Whitehead and love this series. This one felt a little slower and more introspective than the first two, and it dragged in places for me. Not much, just a little here and there. Still, Ray Carney is a tremendous creation and it's imposs ...more | |

| I liked this more than I was expecting to. Johnson is an interesting woman, more interesting in some ways than the famous men around her. She has grit and perserverance while Kerouac and the others surrender to their appetites. | |

| Not bad, but kind of all over the place. There's Civil Rights Era flashbacks, a big longshoreman's strike, the Houston oil industry, plus another half dozen minor sideplots. Locke brings it all together at the end, sort of, but it's a lot for one boo ...more | |

| By the end, McInerney made me feel some sympathy toward his hero Russell Calloway, which is a feat, since Calloway is insufferable - smug, pretentious, avaricious, weak-willed. When I first read this book 25 years ago, I think I envied the characters ...more | |

| One of the weakest of the many memoirs and histories of Weatherman. If you're looking for an up-close-and-personal memoir of Weatherman and the Ayers-Dorhn family, read the recent memoir by Ayers' son, Zayd Ayers-Dorhn. It's just a better book in eve ...more | |

| The author's brother, Bob, was a close friend of my father's, and I have met the author myself, so I was perhaps more interested than some might be by the sections on his family. I had heard a few of the stories, but obviously not all of them, and fo ...more | |
