Terrific book! Extrememly well written. Love the movie, too.
I started reading this for a book club and threw it away after the first part because I didn't care for the explicit sexual content / language. I don't think of myself as being overly prudish, but when inappropriate language is used unnecessarily (it seemed incongruous and unrealistic), I lose respect for the author and his craft. If the author is going to take risks with that kind of language, it better be to the purpose.* I didn't find it was.
