Having read many of the accounts of the Simpson trial from the principals themselves, I looked forward to Dunne's slant on the saga. Perhaps, an experienced writer would place the trial and repercussions in some worthwhile perspective. Wrong. What Dunne delivers is a dizzying rampage through every possible gathering of any conceivable combination of "celebrities". Although the book is presented in a supposed fictional style, I cannot fathom what the distinction is meant to convey. While the book does include many interesting tidbits about the characters in and around the trial, it is weighted down by an encyclopedic accounting of the author's social encounters. Not my Own, reachs no insights into the ramifications of the Simpson affair larger than the authors resolute outrage. A real disappointment.
