I love Ann Patchett and I did not think this book was nearly as good as her others have been. In the back, they have a question and answer session with her and she said this is her favorite book, very surprising to me. She talks about how moral the main character is. Well, I found his choices, actually a total lack of reaction to a lot of ridiculous things, to be not so much moral as just plain blase. Wow. Her writing, as always, is great, but the story just seemed so weird to me. Not my favorite of hers by a long shot.
