Jerome "Corky" Corcoran. A money-juggling wheeler-dealer, rising politico, popular man's man, and successful womanizer. It is a Memorial Day weekend, and we are about to live with him, breathe with him, and sweat with him in a nonstop marathon of mounting desperation as he tries to keep his financial empire from unraveling, his love life from shredding, and his rebellious daughter from destroying both herself and him. Seldom if ever in fiction has a man been brought so vividly to life in all his strength and weakness, hunger and ambition, carnality and corruption. Rarely has the complex web of American society been revealed so rivetingly. And never has one of today's supreme writers, Joyce Carol Oates, written a bolder and better novel than this mesmerizing masterpiece.
Review:
"...an engrossing, moving study of desperate, lonely, and lost souls...in the reading it grows and grows, accumulating authority, picking up pace and finally leaving the reader awed."
James Carroll, New York Times Book Review
