Talk, Talk
by T. C. Boyle
Viking

T he battle between the sexes continues unabated in T. C. Boyle’s latest novel. Decked out as a thriller— complete with a heroine thirsting for justice, a wily villain scrambling to stay one step ahead, cross-country chases, and close escapes—it is also another T. C. Boyle story of relationships gone awry, of strong women and the slightly awestruck men who orbit them. (The eternal mystery of Woman has always fascinated Boyle; most of his novels exalt females as somehow more-than-human presences who dwell among lesser, mortal males.)
