This book reminded me very much of Ann Patchtett's State of Wonder. Unfortunately, I didn't like that one very much either. I found The Expansion to be very slow and had to trudge through it in many spots. I had a hard time really caring for or about any of the characters who seemed very one dimensional and not fleshed out enough. I did like that there wasn't much technical talk regarding the Panama Canal even though a large part of the book centers around its blueprints, plans, budget and expansion project. Many events were left as dangling loose ends, never to be tied up or severed and, even worse, some events had nothing to really do with any of the storylines and did not bring anything substantial to the narrative.
