Tyrewala In Sight

Irene Wanner of the San Francisco Chronicle gives Altaf Tyrewala's No God in Sight a mixed review, after confessing that she didn't understand many parts of it:

"Although a few members from Tyrewala's huge cast affect others briefly here and there -- with a nifty jump back to the beginning at the end (I shouldn't reveal more) -- it's impossible for the writer to develop anyone in much depth. Perhaps his aim was this: a gritty, often unappealing, occasionally captivating whirlwind tour of the cities and people he knows best."
