Christopher’s voice leaps in style from snake oil charlatan to coke addict to dyspeptic political pundit. A prenatal savant, he fires off puns and bawdy jokes with a facility alternately Shakespearean and sophomoric. While the narrator never loses steam—sentences regularly stretch over one hundred words—readers might occasionally wish he’d pause to let the rest of us recover...

Meanwhile a mysterious character, disturbed by Concrete and the foundation he represents, plots an assassination...
...only honest answer is that nobody fully knows. No pundit or political scientist has yet convincingly argued everything that Democrats should do to reclaim confidence in their leadership. But, like intellectual potluckers, thousands of people are serving their favorite home-cooked ideas. And, as at any potluck, some of the offerings are wonderful, and some will make everyone sick...
