More Die of Heartbreak Social Concerns

M ore Die of Heartbreak strongly conrasts the efforts of its two main characters to find and express love within a rapacious urban, even global society.

The narrator and his uncle are besieged on all sides by parvenu in-laws clawing for more, big city political bosses with their gangster companions, and new age entrepreneurs. That the gangsters emerge at the end as the most human characters in the novel is an indication of just how superficial and corrupt society has become. The quest for love seems fruitless.
