This novel is very close to biography, which begs the question - why not just read one of the excellent biographies of the Murphys? Only Gerald's relationship with a veteran pilot seems to have been imagined by the author. The dialogue was sometimes clunky and the novel did not evoke the 1920 in its language, context or sensibility.
