I, unlike the author, am at a loss for words. I finished this book for my book club. We were to read something that is set in a place we have lived. This book germinated in Athens Ohio. At times it made me scratch my head. Those were the good times. Mostly, I just wanted to hurry up and finish the book.
Meh.

Was there a point to this book and I missed it?
This was endless nonsense deceptively posing as a book. It was really bad

I had the pleasure to take several classes from Tony for my undergrad minor in sociology. I didn't know he was a novelist when I signed up for the first one, and never got around to reading my copy of Just a Couple of Days until after I was done with college altogether... but I had such strong flashbacks to sitting in a UTC classroom listening to many of the same ideas.

This is a book with a pretty transparent agenda, and it comes across so strongly that I would hesitate to recommend it to anyone who is not already dabbling in anti-consumerism and the nature of perception by others, self-perception, and self-construction. If the whole Burning Man ethos frightens and concerns you, Tony Vigorito does not write books you will enjoy.

This is a novel to read for the ideas it contains, not the quality of the fiction.

It is a wonderful, life-affirming treatise on what makes us happy, what is communication, what is society, and where does it really end. I deducted a star because the story is kind of silly and unneccessary.... yet it is just a fun romp - a huge and thought provoking stream-of-conciousness about life and everything.
