Big Motorcycle

From A Review: "Big Motorcycle Is At Least A Half-Dozen Books: Pulse-Pounding Action, Horror, Wild Humor, Crime, Social History Of Tokyo, Love And More Love. Logan Does On The Page What The Cohen Brothers Do On The Screen--In, For Example, Fargo: There'S Slapstick And Depravity And Nobility All Mixed Together, But Somehow Working, As In Life. And Logan Can Plot Right Alongside Joseph Heller: He'S Got At Least Seven Stories Happening Simultaneously, Weaving In And Out Of Each Other, Building On Each Other. The Characters, Too, Are Fine: Americans And Japanese Both. One Of The Early Reviewers Of This Novel Wrote That The Reader "Really Cares About The People In This Book, Cares What Happens To Them." And It'S True. Logan'S Got Elmore Leonard-Grade Dialogue Too, And The Sardonic Brilliance Of Jonathan Swift. Call Him A Sort Of Latter-Day Nathaniel West--Or, Rather, East. Terrific, Loved It, A Real Page-Turner--With A Whole Lot Of Pages To Turn. A Classic."
