    A Novel in Full (ignore the TV series)
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2024*

I bought my first copy of this novel the day in came out.  I was living and working in NYC and had to visit several book stores as it sold out instantly.  I got my copy and it was worth the effort.  I consider Bonfire of the Vanities the practice novel for this work which I consider Wolfe's best effort.  It is a long novel, and I have read it at least four times, I am getting ready to read it a fifth time as the horrible TV series that just came out washed away my good memories of this work.I see this novel as a twin retelling of the trials of Job, on two very different characters and involving philosophy as opposed to religion. There were many vivid characters, but I feel like the two 'Jobs' were the backbone of the story.Obviously I feel it worth the read, and maybe skip the miniseries, as I feel that it completely missed the point of the novel.

    A Book in Full needs a beginning, a middle and an ending too
  

*by T***. on Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2000*

For almost 700 pages this book was a joy to read - not despite but because of the overdrawn characters and rollicking plotline.  Wolfe creates a dozen (mostly) memorable characters, warmly posing them like a shameless family photographer amidst a richly textured southern landscape.  The whole exercise sits squarely on the fine line between caricature and stereotype, and while neither the story nor the characters feel "real" the result is an effortless, engaging read.The effect is an almost mythic tale that actually hinges upon the near mythic account of certain long-dead philosophers.  The plot, the dialogue and the characters are clearly designed to serve one another in equal measure, building a story that's true in the way that all myths are true - because of what it means to illustrate.  It's meant to be over the top, and Wolfe smiles and winks with every joyous excess.That's why the sudden collapse of the story line at the end of the book seem entirely unfair and deeply disappointing.  With 700 pages of preparation and at least four major plotlines all converging at last, I expected a bombastic finish worthy of the buildup.  What I got instead was 25 or so hurried pages that tied up every loose end in the least satisfying way imaginable; a contrived dialogue where one character explains everything that went unwritten.  Deux Ex Machina may be a classic mythic device but it's never felt so cheap as it does here; even bad detective stories routinely do a better job at this.Imagine a Beethoven symphony building for almost an hour to a quick finale composed of a breezy ragtime tune; the sudden change in atmosphere that came at the very end of this book was that jarring.  One can almost imagine that the author himself was disappointed to end it this way, his love for the characters having been so evident for so long.I truly felt cheated, and can only imagine that an editorial decision or publishing deadline caused the sudden and traumatic amputation of such a florid story line.  The last chapter, "Epilogue", could easily have sustained 100 more lushly written pages of exploration as these characters finally reached full flower.  Is it too much to hope for the re-released "Director's Cut?"
