He's announced for this. I've read the book; I can't take it. Gee, scads of hopelessness and coldhearted, psychotic, depressing, pointless cruelty. Just like my job.
Sad thing is, someone over at Amazon is comparing the book to Cormac McCarthy's books. Odd: I've never found Mr. McCarthy, even at his bleakest or most violent, to be gratuitously and pointlessly cruel. Unlike this.
Oh, well: shock the ol' monkey. Should I be glad-- or not-- that I'm not young or naive enough to find "White Male Heart" bracing and original? Just seems savage, sad, and-- ultimately, to this inveterate manic-depressive-- very, very trite....
