...Glynn is no imitator. He aggressively establishes his own voice and rhythms: "A musty, greasy fog hung in the air, and the lights of the evening looked blunted and strangely hairy . . . He watched people through the scope of the rifle. He traced the progress of heavy women with rolled-down stockings and battered shoes that barely contained the fat of their feet.
