What to say? A lot of misfit behavior, and inappropriate times under the banner of fun. A lot of drinking and drug use from teens and adults alike. So many people from Tuscon wandering around, lost souls, convincing themselves they are helping one another, when really they are all circling the not-quite-middle-class drain. You do need to read the stories in order for the best shot at watching events unfold.I wouldn't say brilliant, but I did enjoy the author's style of writing.
