review 1: This book was very good at setting the 1960's scene, but I'm afraid it never really grabbed me as much as it should have done. From about three quarters of the way through I couldn't see how it was going to end and when it did, the ending just left me with something of a feeling of dissatisfaction. In fact I felt I rushed reading the end rather, not because it was un-put-downable, but because I wanted to move on to something else, which was a shame.
review 2: This is a chocolaty confection with sprinkles on top and a center of cyanide. The period detail is enthralling and it makes for compelling reading, but in the end I was left with a bad taste in my mouth. It aims for satire, but with no sympathetic characters and an almost completely underdeveloped protagon... moreist, it comes across as a nasty, bitter and cynical book with little morality and no moral to the story. less
