Moo is a satirical, multi-level portrait of a Midwestern agricultural university. It is an enjoyable story with many loosely related plots and subplots. The book also has many characters, from students, instructors and the provost to a hog (part of a secret experiment on campus). I found myself confused at times while reading Moo, and often I had to go back to look up previously mentioned characters and situations. Overall I liked reading Moo and would recommend it. I think people with first-hand experience in a similar university environment may especially enjoy it.
