Query: Great book ... Awkward ending

As many have already pointed out, the ending of this book is not particularly satisfying. However, the story itself is wonderfully complex with characters who are vivid and disctinct. Wolfe does a superb job with his descriptions and the scenes are very entertaining. Some are just down right funny. Especially fun are the few occasions when the reader is privy to multiple perspectives of the same event; when we are given the opportunity to see the differences between women and men, or blacks and whites. The body of the story is so strong and enjoyable, that the flaws of the conclusion do not sufficiently distract from the value of the book as a whole. I would definitely recommend this book!
