As always, Irving writes a good one, but this wasn't my favorite of his. The protagonist had very strong relationships with two characters who end up leaving the narrative partway through the book, to its detriment, I felt. After they leave it seems as though the book moves on toward a conclusion that it never quite reaches, leaving the ending unsatisfying. That said, if you've read Irving before and enjoyed his writing, I'd recommend this one.
