- Michael Chabon -
Wow, I don't know what it is about this guy's writing, but I could not put this book down. His use of language is just so compelling and vivid, it's like having a filmstrip in your head.
Even when I don't particularly like any of the characters as people, and I really didn't like any of them much, I still couldn't wait to read more and see where they ended up.
It's the first book by Chabon, and some of the plot points are fairly easy to see coming, but the mastery of the language and imagery more than make up for it.
Not as brilliant as "Kavalier and Clay", but totally want to read more of his stuff.
