JOANNE (joann) - , reviewed on + 412 more book reviews
Four male classmates from college move to New York to pursue their dreams. JB is an aspiring artist, Malcolm is an aspiring architect, Willem is an aspiring actor and Jude is an aspiring lawyer.
The men are very close, however, JB & Malcolm tend to pair up and Willem and Jude tend to pair together.
They all tend to gravitate toward Jude. Jude is very close-mouthed about his life before college. He has some disabilities, with a lurching walk and has a tendency to wear long sleeves and not want anyone to see him with no clothes on.
The novel really centers on Jude and his story. He had a very rough childhood and we learn most of it throughout the novel.
I thought the book was a little long, but am thrilled with the way the author uses the language.
