At first put off by what seemed to me to be overuse of "F***" and F***ing," I pressed on to the end. I cannot say that the story had any particular effect on my life or thinking, neither adding nor subtracting from it. Even so, the story did have, after all, what seemed to be a moral to it. If I grasped it correctly, it is that people mess up a lot, make decisions they should or will regret, and obsess over others they believe will make their lives better even at the abandonment of previous ties. In the end, some return to their senses by making the choices they should have made in the beginning. Others just bump and stagger through life, sometimes up and more often, down.
The author seems better at dialog than narrative, and that makes me think the story could be more interestingly demonstrated as a live play, the book made into a script.
