Escape from Silicon Valley

"Frosted Glass" is a marvelous tale of romance and escape from the Silicon Valley. Michael Vaughn brings his characters and various west coast locales to life with linguistic brilliance and a gentle wit. Vaughn's gift for description is evident in everything from his delineation of his characters' interior lives to his rendering of sumptuous meals and fantastic seascapes. His characters have personal mythologies every bit as fascinating as the main story and their romance manages to be both playfully sexy and soberingly existential. Their struggle to discover the realities of love and work outside the narrow parameters of Silicon Valley culture is by turns heartrending and hilarious. This is truly one of the best novels I have ever read about creative people in the micro-chip metropolis. It gives one hope that authenticity can survive in a world dominated by cellphones, pagers, laptops and SUVs.
