Oedipa Maas - Recently named executrix of the estate of Pierce Inverarity, the novel seems to be written in third-person, limited to Oedipa, however I am not positive.
Wendell ("Mucho") Maas - Oedipa's husband; former used-car seller, seems to be a bit unstable...he gets easily upset.
Pierce Inverarity - Former lover of Oedipa; deceased.
Roseman - Family lawyer, wants to "run away" (p. 10) with Oedipa...he is married, and also tried to play footsie with Oedipa under the table.
Dr. Hilarius - called Oedipa at three in the morning, to discuss the pills she wasn't taking. Seems like a creepy scary scientist who does freaky tests on innocent people.
My thoughts so far on this book are:
1. It sounds like it was written by someone on drugs
2. It sounds like it is written about people on drugs
3. It sounds like it is going to go nowhere
