Average Customer Rating: 5 (3 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: Outstanding
Comment: I loved this book. It's totally different from John Dollar (which I also loved); reminded me somewhat of a Nick Hornby read. Funny, sad, and passionate. Wiggins' prose is exquisite.
Rating: 5
Summary: A great book
Comment: See my review under the paperback edition. Though for the price differential, the harcover edition is a bargain
Rating: 5
Summary: A writer of the highest caliber takes on love & politics
Comment: This is the best book I have read this year. Stylistically brilliant, scintillant, it searches into the nature of love and the obsessions of of eros -- not in daily life, but in life on the edge, life where politics, catastrophe, and the twentieth century converge.
Wiggins' protagonist is a journalist -- male -- who covers international events of major magnitude; set alternately in Africa, at the (falling)Berlin wall, and in 'liberated' Eastern Europe, the book is a serious inquiry intot he relations between eros and ethos. The characters are riveting, the settings full of the excitement and confusion of the late twentieth centurty -- and the prose, the prose is a continual joy. Only a slight falling off at the end -- the book gets into so much that it is tough for Wiggins to extract herself and the reader from the fullness -- mars what is otherwise a wondrous book for our times.
