*********** Was Gloria the depressing, whiny girl that the

I thought they should have given him a medal for that, in-
stead of a noose. I wanted to shoot her after 20 pages.
I thought it was a weak part of the book. The feeling I had
was that the hardships they endured should have been the
reason for a pessimistic and cynical view of life. Gloria's
bitchy attitude was built into her personality, and the
conditions of her life were just an excuse for expressing her
nastiness.
