4 étoiles
What a delightful sprawling madcap slice of New York. Dark and funny, an overwhelming cast and set of threads and diversions. Did any of it matter? Does it voice a rosy cozy gritty 60s or grimly stubborn mid-point between southern oppression and modern violence of drugs and poverty? As recommended to me, the audiobook is an absorbing performance.
