John S. (Seajack) reviewed Intense protagonist - you'll love her or hate her on + 347 more book reviews
Helpful Score: 2
I loved this inter-related series of short stories featuring a nameless neurotic (to say the least!), macrobiotic protagonist - terrific parody of the northeastern upper middle class. Being familiar with (some combination of) New York City, the Hamptons, and Nantucket helps.
The constant prescence of Dr. Arnold Loquesto got old after a while, but his being such a jerk does fit with the protagonist's obsessive nature. Nameless's fixation of finding "evidence" of anti-Semitism everywhere grew old, too, though I took that as part of the parody.
