Ehn. This one was hard to finish.

The author tried to put his reporter character into an absurd plot involving schizophrenics, generalized kooks, and the state of Alaska, but instead just repeats himself over and over about how the world is a strange place and the reporter is jaded.

It's as if the author wrote a short story and said, "Holy Jesus, I have to turn this into a book," and added a bunch of filler to see how many more pages he could squeeze out.

Complete garbage. Sadly, I think he was considered a home town hero in my parts.
