Back to Blood by Tom Wolfe
3.0
3.5 stars
Wolfe shows how masterful he is at weaving a story of diverse characters and plots and bringing all the different threads together in a meaningful and interesting way. Stylistically his writing is different and took some getting used to, like his ::: offsetting character’s interior monologues. He touches on a lot as he looks at this slice of modern American life, at times a little crass and bleak and depressing, but that felt intentional. His characters and their individual plights held my interest.
