Query: Strangely boring....

From the title and description, the book sounds wonderful. And of course, I'm all for books and/or movies about my home state. But, after having attended a presentation by the author at my University, I cannot recommend this book. He read to us an excerpt, which almost put me to sleep (not an easy feat in that freezing conference room)! After an hour and a half of listening to how many disks the book occupied on the author's ancient Tandy computer, an anecdote about the author once wearing his wife's pants to work, and other such nonsense, my professor (who had hoped the author would explore the psychological impact of the events on the main character) apologized to our entire class for making us attend! So, if you want a bit of history on WV, go rent Matewan or October Sky. If you want psychological undertones, go see A Beautiful Mind. If you just want something set in WV period, go see The Mothman Prophecies. But please, don't buy this book.
