I'm really enjoying this debut novel. The narrative shifts within chapters work for me, as I feel as if I'm getting to know the interior lives of several characters. Of these, Sam and Virginia are most interesting to me, emerging as distinctive characters suffering from dislocations imposed by the dominant culture. The intersections of art & 1970 pop culture are "way out!" So far, this novel is "a taste of honey."
