...Finnegan, the dazzling special effects of such founding fathers as Tom Wolfe and Norman Mailer have given way to an admirable transparency. The author-observer, like a good scientist in nature, all but vanishes. Finnegan fleetingly appears from time to time, only as a kind of bemused white-bread oddity wearing burgundy Rockport shoes, set down for a while among black dope dealers in New Haven, Conn.; or Chicano gangbangers in the Yakima Valley of Washington State; or piney-woods country people in East Texas; or, finally, among forlornly vicious white junior Nazis, feral and bored to death, in Antelope...

Hotel rooms and airline seats are increasingly--and exasperatingly--scarce during peak travel times, which makes it harder and harder for travelers to redeem their points in the traditional fashion, even though such offerings are still the bread and butter of frequent-travel programs.

Residents...
...deal with Jesus' 40 days in the wilderness, about double the length of the following un-King Jamesian summary: the newly baptized Galilean retreats to the Judean desert where he is mocked and enticed by the devil; Jesus does not take the bait; he won't turn stones into bread because man does not live by bread alone; he won't jump from the temple tower to prove his divinity because it is forbidden to presume God's protection; finally, he rejects the Faustian bargain--the world's riches for his soul...
