★★☆☆☆
Please use a flippin' PERIOD!
A great premise and much thoughful work, but Brinkley goes on and on and on and on and on and on and what was the editor thinking when he proofed this book when he looked at it and read it and then considered what type of modifications should be made and then he didn't notice that most every sentence is hundreds of words long and that they tend to comprise lenghty paragraphs and drove me up the wall trying to struggle past these elephants in the room to attempt to distill any type of story or pacing or plot or mood because the sentences that Brinkley constructs are limitless and if you move your lips while you read you better take a huge breath or you will suffocate before you finally, eventually, make it to that rare and glorious period that Brinkley may or may not decide to put at the end of a rambling thought that somehow, by the laws of literature, finally come to an end and possibly it is some type type of radioactive mutation that has caused all of the periods to wither and die, maybe.(period)
