Much as I have enjoyed Harrison in the past, after 63 pages I could not care about his protagonist, his girlfriend or his sex life. The idea of visiting every state had a certain appeal but not enough to keep reading.

This nearly killed me a few months back when I was reading Philip Roth’s Indignation and saw that David Gates had written a review of it for the NY Times.
The same can be said for Jim Harrison’s The English Major. Even though I’d never heard of the book the minute I read the subhead on a LA Times review from October. It said this:
