How is it so far?
There are parallel stories of a schizophrenic woman and her salvage diver brother, the woman’s POV stuff is full of hallucinations and less interesting, but the brothers part starts with a mystery / caper kind of like No Country for Old Men. Worth giving a shotHow is it so far?
I've read a couple of Hudson's books and quite liked them. However I (and some others) ended up in an online discussion with him and it went awry. Despite his background and reputation (the respectable Univ of Missouri Kansas City), he doesn't seem to understand certain factual operational things about the economy (e.g. the relationshp of the Federal Reserve to government and it's status) and as such he's obsessed with the idea that some other 'public monetary system' needs to be created rather than taking proper control of the existing monetary economy.
One of the best books I've ever read. O'Brien was on par with Joyce.
It's nice to see a new translation of Dumitru Tsepeneag's work into English. Some years ago, I read his "Hotel Europa", which I quite enjoyed.Dumitru Tsepeneag: A Novel to Read on the Train
