Been a while since I read this one but I remember being impressed (positively I mean). I think it's the only book other than A Man in Full (Tom Wolfe) that I've read which was so thoroughly from a male's perspective. It was well-written, sensitive and intelligent and felt that I understood him and respected him, even though his focus was always sexual/erotic... male, remember. I almost wouldn't call this a novel, it's more like a view of life from the inside of this man's head.
