I too found the first forty pages (for me the first 100 pages) of Hannibal, frankly, disappointing. But, I would say the Florence section (starting on page 111 in the hard bound edition) which follows was superb, perhaps Harris at his finest. Then it, IMO, devolves again when it comes back to the USA. Just a bit too surreal for my taste. But I just might read it again-a diferent time and place. I would recommend the Florence section if you still have the book and inclination. Regards, Jim.
