I picked this up in hopes that it was written by one of my favorite authors, but was hugely dissapointed. The writing is just not very polished at all. It was written in the sixties, so might be seen as a vaguely interesting artifact from that time, but there are much better books that can give you the flavor of the sixties. I believe that this is a first book, as it seems to hit many of the cliches of romance. The characters are okay, but nothing special, and the plot is so cliched as to be embarrasing. I honestly cannot recommend it.

Truly a wonderful story, with plenty to make the reader think. Busby has crafted a story based so closely on the real world, that all the events feel as though they could happen. He is a fabulous storyteller, and I highly recommend that anyone who likes his work read it.

I got this book for a creative writing class, and haven't stopped using it since. I don't consider myself to be a poet, but this book has helped me create several different poems. I recommend it for anyone who wants a good handbook on writing.
