The Devil and Webster by Jean Hanff Korelitz

2.0

I had high hopes for this book, as I've liked other books by this author and usually love campus novels. I didn't mind that the plot was slow to unravel, and I actually found the descriptions of the college's history and the protagonist's life and friendships interesting. But about 3/4 of the way through the book, this plot began to strain credibility, and offered only the perspective of the flummoxed protagonist. I wish this book had offered a more nuanced and realistic portrayal of all involved.
