John Cheever meets Harold Robbins
An engaging look into the landed Protestant gentry of New Jersey horse country and their struggle to find meaning in the post-Vietnam era.The characters are lively and Simpson's writing style is reminiscent of John O'Hara at his early best.Understated melodrama and an eye for detail in the dissolving world of WASP culture make this novel a must read for anyone interested in the fading of America's humble aristocracy.

Reading this author is as if you're watching a movie!
Nobody in a long time has written so obviously with the reader in mind. Each character and scene creates an incredible sequence of events. Simpson is definitely unique as a storyteller. Highly recommended reading. ... Read more

A Young Bill Clinton?
I read this book over a year ago and don't recall details such as the names of the characters.A friend suggested it and the only reason I kept reading it and finished it was to try and see what she liked about it.

The setting is the back country up north, like Up-State New York orMass. or maybe New Hamphshire or Vermont.The main characters father wasthe son of a rich tycoon and was a Senator for years.The Grandfather madeall the money and is the most interesting character.The story neverreally tells you exactly where it occurs which becomes frustrating becausethe story is told in a way that makes it sound like a real place and realevents.Most of the story is about the fight to stop the federalgovernment from putting up a damn right in the middle of Grand-daddy'scountry estate (which he basically stole from the Indians - the damn wouldput his "little piece of heaven" under water, and which hasbecome the home of most of the family clan, sort of like the Kennedy's CapeCod compond.The main character and his girl-friend/wife eventuallyprevail but the woman dies in what is only understood as a suicideinvolving the damn.The main character then "moons" thePresident (who was the Governor of the State when the fight over the damnwas brewing) and then runs for President himself, as the fresh face inWashington, the real "people's canditate".

The book takes theform of entries in the main character's journals both past and present sothere is a lot of jumping around and too much unnecessary detail.It'sjust too long to get to the point.The book begins and ends with aconstitutional crisis being reported by the "Dan Rather" of thecountry at this time -the Election of 2000 (I think).The problem is thepeople's candidate who bares his but as a form of political protest is not35 years old (the minimum age required by our Constitution).No one inpower wants this "kid" with no experience and no manners (soundslike Slick Willie to me) to be sworn in as President.I still don't knowwhat my friend saw in the book. ...
