" While I enjoyed the banter in the first half of the book, the plot involving weak men, their weak wives, and a girl that can develop a strong interior story then flip it twice before acting... now that can get a bit long. The first part had quite a few funny lines. These dried up as you saw the main character's personality issues come to the front. The book played off of three men that can be best described as wishy washy. There's a lot of non-decision and inert dreaming that goes on, enough to drive one crazy. The one being either a character in the book or the reader. But it is Roth, you feel you know these characters in real life. "
