The Revised Fundamentals of Caregiving by Jonathan Evison

3.0

It was a great story in many ways, but I wanted more of the characters (the ones who are not main characters, but have more than a peripheral role, like the companions on the road trip) to have more substance. Also, some of the road trip seemed contrived, which clashed in an uncomfortable way with the very not-contrived, tragic nature of the narrator's history. Because both stories—past and present—were being told simultaneously, it was hard to reconcile the different tones and approaches.
