I really enjoyed that book. If it wasn't for the threat of my TBR pile tipping and crushing me beneath it, I'd be buying other titles of Chabon's (actually, I found another in a thrift store the other day for AUS$3 and didn't buy it for some stupid reason). So, I'd be interested in hearing how you fair this time.

Also, I'm always interested in honest takes by authors themselves on another's work (that is, not the blurbish Stephen King-like "[insert author name] is the scariest author ever and can father his vampire child in my womb" type thing ).

Cheers,
Marc
