This was a very quick read and there's some interesting stuff going on here, but it felt over all too soon. The interactions between Dave and Carl were far too limited and I would have liked to see more of them.

It contains racism, which I guess is to be expected of a book from that time and a fair bit of sexism. Though the racism and sexism are mostly Carl's, while Dave is a lot less so and supports his wife's feminism in the whole and likes how multicultural Brunswick is, so I guess from that perspective it's more modern than it first appears.

I dunno, might have to stew on it for a bit.
