Helpful Score: 8
I am very ambivalent about this book. As a story about the struggle of two couples and an affair, with other issues interwoven, it was very well done. But the whole black/white issue that he focuses on made me kind of angry. Its characters were stereotypical; and it over-emphasized the racial issue. If the author hadn't made such a big deal about the whole black/white thing, I would have liked it better. As a writer, we are always told to "show don't tell", and there was too much TELLING.
