 | | JR is so curious, in fact, that upon arriving home, he begins to study and plan ways to make his piece of America work for him. |
 | | Perhaps because he is eleven, JR is unable to see the companies he buys, sells, underwrites and reconstructs as actual tangible realities, the employees are little more than vast bottomless money pits in terms of salaries to him, and nothing is sacred. |
 | | JR is an important novel by a relatively obscure literary novelist worthy of the small but devoted readership of which it has become my privilege to join. |
