Well, I am going to disagree with the majority here. The plot is good, the characters believable and one attaches to them. But the way Heller provides the background of each character is so clunky. It's like when you see a good play but the lead character has overdone his make-up. The wrinkles are too etched and can be seen to be false from the audience; the costume just 2 degrees too cute. It made the book sophomoric to me. Some writers create the background with such subtlety that it the same way a person notices things. This was not that. This was a wet towel swatting you in the face with Celine's wealth, background, dress, etc etc ad nauseam.
