OH MY GOD this was the worst book I have read in a long time. It was way to wordy! Probably sounds funny to say that about a book, but god it was awful. The writer would go off on tangents that seemed to make no sense. He would use two pages to describe what could be said in two sentences. I never really got the "theme" of the book or what it was really all about.
Basically it starts off about light moving across the world, then to some old drunk lady, then her daughter, then her driver, then back to her, then various people in her office etc. Something about making a miniseries called "The Diviners". I will give away the ending, because there was no build up or anything but in the last what, paragraph or so it doesn't get made. I am only assuming that was the general theme. There was no real resolution of anything not that there was a major conflict really. They all had individual conflicts that never came together and none of them ever resolved.
Glad this was a cheap book because it was awful. I also bought The Ice Storm by the same author, which was made into a movie. Man I hope it is better than this was.
