Query: Very disappointing

The storyline fails to hold any interest at all, but the worst aspect of this book is that every single character has the same personality. They are all cynics, whose every word drips with aggressive sarcasm as they interact with one another. One or two sarcastic cynics as characters in a book can make it amusing. Having all characters take on this kind of persona makes it merely tiresome. The blurb on the back of the book led me to hope I might find some interesting social criticism of the exploitation of people in developing countries by lecherous, wealthy foreigners. Sadly, the book never rises to such lofty heights.
