A nice, meandering tale--the equivalent of a lazy summer afternoon. The tale sheds interesting light on its period--just after the big depression but before WWII--but is an otherwise fluffy tale of vapid and shallow characters with small and meaningless lives. Well written, but I just wasn't sure there was a point or a message---which may have been the point AND the message.
