Dos Passos similarity. Character strong, dialogue strong, not sure there will be a plot. Birmingham working class manufacturing families

Dos Passos similarities. Strong on characters, dialogue, everyday experience . . . doesn't look like there will be much of a typical plot

Reminds me of Dos Passos. I don't think it will be strong on plot--more daily life of Birmingham manufacturing workers. Strong, natural dialogue and situations . . . but that lack of a plot is tough on readers.
