Review of My Zinc Bed (2008) by Andrew S — 05 Jul 2009
Based on a play, and really shows it. The dialogue is intense, lengthy, and complex, with some finely wrought character interaction. Some of the conversations are like fencing matches, with fast-moving tension that I found rather compelling.
People who aren't into that kind of thing will be bored to death. The whole thing is more or less a treatise on alcoholism, and a debate on the usefulness of AA, with some pretty sharp-edged arguments.
I enjoyed it, though Uma Thurman with an accent always weirds me out a little.
