Must be freaky book week for me. I could not understand not one of these characters, even though Shulman explained them completely to me. I think she created three interesting characters, I just couldn't understand what each got out of the other. Bored rich people playing mind games with a delusional semi-sociopath. Not a bad way to spend an afternoon.

Interesting quick read about a progressive? marriage or something like it, in which a wealthy husband and wife take in a celebrated Eastern European expat writer in the hopes that they will "learn how to live". The relationships in the book are so off the wall, but I found it pretty fascinating that they could be so blase about their infidelities (or lack thereof). Complex, really rich writing, and crazy bored over-educated rich people...what's not to like?

Um... what was the point of this book? Painful writing, bad dialogue, and no plot.
