What a complete pile of horse crap! Thank goodness I didn't buy it and it was abridged! Almost threw it out the window several times.

Recommended by a colleague - who later confessed that she only read the first half and skimmed the rest, which released me from a close read too. Interesting premise, matching everyday activities to philosophy. Too religious for me though. I too lost interest about halfway through. I did appreciate the reminder that belief does not equal truth.

The racially-fueled crime happens early in the book, during the 70's. The story picks up again with the teenagers now adults, some with kids of their own. Pelecanos does a great job of showing how "the incident" affected all their lives and their families. It's a great book, dealing with race, family, the after-effects of violence. He does make some commentaries on the current was, but it's not a focal point of the novel.

I re-read this book recently, and I still love it. It's the story of a woodworking artist who suffers from monolar depression. She moves to an island in the Pacific Northwest, there to rebuild an ancestral home destroyed by fire. At its core a literary thriller (mysteries surround the island and the fire that destroyed the original home), what keeps drawing me back is the tale of recovery and reconstruction.
Daniela Kuper is in our families’ rooms. Listening, intuiting, witnessing how intimates can simultaneously savage and salvage each other. How each loving gesture contains some small threat, how each generosity is at the same time a staking of one’s claim. In the lovely “Hunger & Thirst,” she writes how our families--the people we love, who should know us best--sometimes escape us; how sometimes they corner and limit us, and keep us from being who we need to be--for ourselves, and ourselves alone, and of the guilt feelings that arise from going against those we care most about. She writes with a deft touch about the pettiness and little grudges people hold, and how, despite our best attempts not to get worn down by them, we do. How every moment shared in the past can be fodder for aching in the present. She writes gloriously unusual, yet perfect sensual descriptions of things: Describing her Aunt’s home as “[smelling] like Clearasil, Polident and old throat.” How she writes of hearing schoolchildren playing outside a window with “fall was in those screams, everything those kids had to get out before school corked them.” And in temple “[her prayers] jumped track and went electric, sizzing and spazzing so her words went to other kingdoms besides heaven.” There’s real poetry in her writing; through her astonishing specificity in calling up the real-seeming places where the character live and events transpire, she places us firmly with the people in “Hunger & Thirst.” One paragraph describing one block of a neighborhood gives us the history of a time, of a place, of its people. Daniela Kuper writes with true compassion and a magnificent depth of understanding of the unutterable longings within a person that dare not come out for fear of remaining unfulfilled. “Hunger & Thirst” will be as familiar to a reader as their own varied broods, and as particular in and of itself as a created world can be.
