pio_near 's review for:

America Fantastica by Tim O'Brien
4.0

A meandering tale following the hapless Boyd Halverson... for the most part, and his comedy of errors and companions after robbing a bank and beating it for parts unknown.
At once a sweeping, scathing criticism for the "mythomania", or compusive lying, that seems to have swept the nation, if not the world, America Fantastica is ultimately about our broken, troubled pasts and how... if we get lucky... we may just be able to find another broken, trouble past that fits with ours to make a whole.

My thanks to NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
