I have to qualify that five star. It wasn't because it was the most awesome writing I had ever read. It wasn't the wonderful imagery. It didn't make me feel good or take me anywhere I wanted to go. What it did do is take me to a place that helped me better understand what this man Douglas Colvin, AKA Dee Dee Ramone went through in his life, and it wasn't pretty. Dee Dee was filled with hatred and self-loathing. His life was one chain of dysfunctional relationships after another that started from birth and ended in his death. The book ends with him overcoming his life long addiction to heroine and various other vices, but sadly after writing the book years later Dee Dee would succumb to his addictions again and OD just like so many of his friends, if they could really be called that. It really was an honest look at the sad state to which a man can go. To read a book like this you would think you could come away liking the guy. Who can't like the underdog that comes out of such adversity, but there was nothing to like in him. It had been brutally beaten out of him. In some ways I felt like he was a child that never learned to trust, because he so rarely found those he could trust. As a result, he would deaden the sense of a very deep pain he had with one dose of dope after another. In the end, he was silenced forever. So, why such a high rating. Because it was real. Love it or hate it, it was real.

I couldn't decide whether this book fell under the "loved it" or "it was amazing" category. I finally settled on "loved it" but only because I want to try (try) to keep my "it was amazing" books to an exclusive few. However, I must say that I was amazed by the book. Barnes writing was smooth and effortless to read. At the same time it was penetrating, and he could articulate feelings and contradictions with clarity. The story was wonderful. It is about Arthur Conan Doyle, the creator of Sherlock Holmes, and George Edalji, a wrongly convicted solicitor. The book gives a great narrative about Doyle's youth and adulthood. I found the psuedo-biography fun and enlightening. Though the book is fiction, I'm sure that some of how Barnes characterized Doyle was accurate. I think one reason I enjoyed this book was because of Barnes' depiction of Edalji's legal mind and of Doyle's Victorian mind. I loved how George would analyze things thoroughly and then cross examine himself. It didn't get in the way of the story for me to have the characters constantly feeling strongly one way only to then convince themselves that they were wrong. On the contrary, that is one of the reasons I loved this book. Personally, I think this book, a finalist for the Man Booker Prize in 2005, was better than Banville's The Sea and Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go. Banville won the Booker, and it is rumored Ishiguro's came in a close second. But Arthur and George was much better than either of them.
