Haiku by Andrew Vachss

When I checked this book out and began reading, I was under the impression that I was getting myself into a well written mystery. The book appeared on a "can't miss mystery and thriller" list I subscribe to through the public library.
What I found in the pages of this book is a wandering meditation on the nature of honor and talent, told in wonderful voice, without much of a purpose. Ho's narration - and the dialogue amongst the rest of his homeless "family" - captures his character very nicely, though I don't think that his musings are as thoughtful as they are written to seem.
Disappointing story, but I will be reading more work by [a:Andrew Vachss|36764|Andrew Vachss|http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1250519815p2/36764.jpg] because I really appreciated the personification of his characters.
