"At every other curve, near the top of the road, we'd catch a glimpse of nighttime LA. Even way back then the city was a sea of lights. Bight and shiny and alive. Just looking out on Los Angeles at night gave me a sense of power."(137)
Richard's neighborhood houses the rich and powerful, who look over LA. However, Richard is one of the most despicable characters in the novel. Success is no measure of goodness.
