The start made me very afraid: all the cliches of a bad cop ... are in "Dirty Old Man" (whiskey and daughters, and we get bored ...). Gradually, Harrison manages to still to be interested in his character (the plot is, it completely evanescent) and the final pages have a kind of beauty that does not appeased left me unmoved. Of course, if it was not Harrison ... I would have given up after fifty pages ... but in the end it's still a good book, between two and three stars. From those we enjoy reading a rainy day, but we do not reread.
