A meandering book that doesn’t really have a plot, but what a pleasure to read. I was expecting a “come to Jesus” moment for Binx, but the closest he got was Aunt Emily’s dressing down of him after coming back from Chicago. Even that is pretty tame, though—a Flannery O’Connor novel, this is not. I would be happier for Binx if he actually grew spiritually as a person, but alas no.
