It strikes a curious balance between religious fanatacism and rationality and opened my eyes to a part of American life and culture that I never would have imagined could exist. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/128053?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
