ReplyDeleteI know we have swapped to The Help and are leaving this book for a "big read', but I am half way through and loving it. One of the most interesting reads I have done in a while. Not for the feint hearted as there are some difficult concepts. I am loving the author's style for story telling. At times he seems a bit like Tim Winton. It is a long book, but I am not finding it a difficult read. Plenty to discuss in this one.

Hey girls, Jeffrey Eugenides was on Conversations on ABC702 today! I have downloaded the podcast and am looking forward to listening. The book was so interesting that I am sure it will be fascinating to listen to.
