I may give it a go soon. It's hard to say though, my tbr pile is probably about 150 books or so high.

But Kavalier & Clay was a really good book -- good enough that it sticks out in my mind as one I remember pretty well. I agree that the best part of it was the look at how characters are created. <br /><br />I've always thought "The Escapist" was kind of a weird superhero -- strangely compelling. And I used it on Mr Bunches as a baby when he was able to get out of his crib, so there's that.Brianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01616494058636881575noreply@blogger.com
