Query: An amaingly finely wrought work.

I picked this up on a whim, I felt like reading something from Europe, I don't know why. I am, however, very glad I bought this. The book is descriptive, slightly experiemental, and a lot of fun to read. Mocking Desire chronicles the life of Gregor Gradnik, a Slovene student getting his masters in New Orleans. It tells us of his friends, coleagues, and the people he meets, each of which has some different quirkyness that sets them apart from everyone else. The book is humourus at parts, and very serious at others. It is really a good way to read about how foreign students view Americans, and is a real eye opener both literarily and realistically speaking.
