I gather a film has been made of this. Must be pretty depressing viewing. Well written but you'll want to slash your wrists halfway through.
It's a train wreck of epic proportions, told in slow, excruciating detail, and you cannot look away. It reminds me of A Simple Plan in that it's a tragedy based in human flaws.
