the narrative here isn't too strong, but I enjoyed a lot of the episodes and his gift for description and lunacy. It's practically made for me in terms of subject matter, too--capiralism run amok in a global warming-ravaged world where a coastal Alaska town is one of the last refuges--so that helped.

Read this after seeing an author appearance at my college in 1994. I liked most of it, but the villainous albino trope should probably be retired.

Kesey wrote this in '92. He still had it, same as always. Great!

This started as a great book, but was ruined by the ending. It seemed like Kesey created a world, got tired of the process and so just decided to end it with a deus ex machina. Terribly disappointing.
