A Flash Of Green (Fawcett Gold Medal) (1984)

About book A Flash Of Green (Fawcett Gold Medal) (1984)

This book is flawed, but it hits some incredible peaks on the way to its somewhat disappointing conclusion. There are scenes that don't work, but there are also incredible insights into human nature and deep characterizations and observations. This was an ambitious novel for JDM and it has a lot of things to say to us today about issues that still concern humanity: prejudice, greed, small-town politics, journalism and its abuses/powers, rampant "development"... There are times in 'Flash of Green' when it seems as if JDM is describing the 'tea party' mentality of today. Sad, but true.
