Great and sardonically funny book, easy quick read. Anyone who has studied the American approach to the Cuba crisis or worked with government bureaucracy will enjoy this.

You have to get through the first 70-80 pages unfortunately-- the book starts very slow, but worth it for the ending. It isn't one of his guilt ridden novels.
