Ok - I get that it's a Pulitzer Prize winner. I can only say how I related to it I'm not giving anything away by saying the story is about a dying man (mentioned in the first page). As he drifts in and out of consciousness he remembers bits of his life. Most of the ramblings were interesting but overly detailed in explanation. I would have enjoyed a more flowing story line. More details about the family less about the bark on the trees. I would not recommend this book to friend or family. Want a really great Pulizer read - try these two ---Middlesex and Empire Falls. (My two favorites).

Took a while to get into the book. The descriptions are vibrant and colorful, but, at times, seem out of place and a bit off. Liked it overall as a 3 stars. Not sure I'd recommend it to my book clubs, but would say one might want to read it on their own to see what they get from it.
The story is rambling and random. I didn't know what was going on half the time. Had to force myself to finish it.

I bought this book on a friends recommendation and it hasn't disappointed. The writing style sucks you into the lives of the characters and the setting description gives the feeling you're there. Highly recommended.
quick delivery excellent condition description, the seller was very descriptive of item and very quick to mail packaged well and recieved in excellent condition
