Helpful Score: 1
I'm a long-time fan of Piercy's work, but was very disappointed by this book. Trite, predicatable, cliched, with characters that are uninteresting, hollow stereotypes, there is little to recommend this novel. Perhaps if I had been 16 when I read this it would have been engrossing, but this is not a book for an adult audience. The primary character is unrealistically naive, and most readers will guess the plot complications before they happen. It's unfortunate that Piercy's normal political and human insights are so missing from this novel.
