I would give this 1.5 stars, if I could. I wanted to like this book and there is enough contained herein to give Shteyngart one more chance. I'm not in need of liking the protagonist, and Vladimir is an unlikeable character. Combining this fact, with the strangely ficitionalized Prague as a backdrop and the absurd machinations of the plot, I found reading beyond page 362 of this edition to be not worth my time. [If that is irritating, so is reading another 100 pages.] Prague in 1993 was such an rich and vibrant place. It seems so ripe for a novel, but Shteyngart twists ever so slightly into a fiction that doesn't seem to serve a purpose. Yes, there were gangsters, 25,000 American ex-pats, and bars where they hung out, and bars where the locals hung out, and good literature available in english, old ladies and pensioners who couldn't cope with the changes that they had seen. So, why, oh why, change all the names of the places, largely through making anagrams of the original names? There has to be a reason, but it is not apparent to me. Prior to his travel to Prava, there are a wealth of avenues for Vladimir in New York to go down. That Shteyngart chose a quasi-picaresque adventure for him to return, to Bohemia, but not to his homeland, ignores and eradicates potential character and plot developments, which may have been more satisifying. Indeed, although surrounded and acknowledging the legacy of more famous ex-pats, the ex-pat Vladimir does not reflect upon the world he has left behind, beyond realizing that he's been overly intertwined with his Jewish mohter and that he creates, and fosters the similar amorous relationships in a new land.

Interesting premise: an author struggling with his latest book is horrified to find that they have somehow come to life. Unfortunately the story doesn't live up to the concept. The reader never learns exactly how the characters cross over from the pages of an unfinished novel into the author's world; likewise, the reader doesn't exactly learn how they return to the other side. If you want to read a good book by Straub, read Koko instead.

Time travel. Scottish Highlanders. Bodice ripping romance. Peril. Who could ask for anything more?

A novel that demonstrates the harsh realities faced by "a part-time Indian" as well as oher young adults as they encounter the trials and tribulations of life.

Well, this is much better than "Missing Kissinger", especially because all the best stories from "Missing Kissinger" are in this one.

I had heard that this book was a disappointment so my expectations were low, but I enjoyed it. It wasn't terribly sophisticated and was a bit X-Menish, but still. I thought it was pretty fun.

Excellent investigative journalistic viewpoint, along with personal memoir, that follows where our food really comes from.

This was a very cute book. I enjoyed the story line. My daughter read this book when she was in middle school. The story starts out on Halloween. Sammy, Marissa and Dot are getting ready for trick or treat. Sammy's Gram thinks she is too old for dressing up. The girls decide to knock on a house that is considered scary. As the girls are on there way to the house they are run down by a man in a skeleton costume. That is the set up for a very adventurous story. There are more teenage going ons in the book that just added to the humor of the book. This is a nice easy read for anyone that just wants an afternoon of relaxation.

The second of the Mary Russell books, almost as good as the first.
