In a word: Excellent

by   dnsawyer ,  May 24, 2001
Pros: Excellent, believable characters. Intro to a unique sliver of society.

Review: My first encounter with Tom Wolfe was The Right Stuff. I don't remember whether I saw the movie first or not. I do remember not buying the book for a long time because the cover was so dull. When I finally did I was amazed.

Many others...
