What was the group consensus of "32 Cadillacs"? I recently read it based on the discussions on this list, and was disappointed.

I found the six or eight or however many view points Gores used to be jarring, interrupting the flow of the story. Also, while he was certainly likeable, the dialogue from the character who had the speech impediment was incredibly disruptive.

Do his first three works in the DKA series employ the multiple veiwpoint technique?
