Yes, I think by the Radioman arc you've kind of accepted that noone is going to live happily ever after/there are no heroes (the point of the book?), but you really do keep hoping against hope, because you really do feel for the characters They are so real!

Maybe his almost non-existance for the middle third was a good thing, I'm not sure my heart could handle reading about those twelve years of denial and suburban mediocrity.
If the prose ever suffered from bloat, it is forgiven for the parts where it is just sublime. Actually the last passage of the book reduced me to tears. Amongst others. ;_; (again, man, Bacon/Sam. crying, everything)
Me too! I love that Chabon didn't skimp on the arty details, he really does love the medium (or is especially good at faking it idk ahah)
