Sinopsis:

A cast of characters primarily from the working class of a Seattle suburb grapples with dark compulsions and painful emotions in their search for sex, drugs, violence, symbols of their faith, and local sports championships. A first novel. Reprint.

Críticas: "At last we've found the young writer who will carry us into the new millennium. Matthew McIntosh brilliantly displays the world of today with bleak love, desperate hope, and ruthless compassion. The top writer of his generation." "A brilliant meditation of the way in which human beings invest in various sourts of meanings--a game, a body (your own or someone else's), a drug--and how this investment never quite delivers what you thought it would. It's a verbally pyrotechnic, formally exciting, and emotionally devastating book." "The humanity of the people sings off the page. They are not characters in a book, but rather living beings with all the hopes, dreams, fears, loves, hates, illusions, and rationalizations that are part of the human dilemma. A book that still resonates in my heart." "Daringly structured ... McIntosh shows a remarkable facility for capturing different voices, the way people speak and think in their most private moments, the circular, stammering way that inarticulate people describe pivotal moments of their lives....Extremely involving and interesting."
