While it's an interesting idea for a book, the writing gets pretty sloppy at times, to the point where if the book was another 50 or 60 pages, I probably would have put it down. Additionally, the book really doesn't add anything to the dialogue about the difference between genders (or is that "sexes"). Instead, it reinforces the basic stereotypes that women are nurturing creatures and men are action-oriented. Gee, Doris, thanks for the info. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/73427994 to: Vanishing Point (Paperback) by David Markson
