Finch seemed to be the only one I cared to feel invested in. There is negative judgement placed on both poverty and wealth, which somewhat degrades the characters and makes nearly everyone in the book somewhat petty or shallow.

Between black-ops missions and rescuing hostages, they swap stories of artistic malaise and muse on the seemingly inescapable grip of market economics.

Kinsella, the Canadian novelist and short story writer, rocketed to international fame in 1989 when his whimsical baseball novel Shoeless Joe was adapted into the Kevin Costner hit film Field of Dreams.
