Historia
Patty and Walter Berglund were the new pioneers of old St. Paul - the gentrifiers, the hands-on parents, the Whole Foods generation. Patty was the ideal sort of neighbor, who could tell you where to recycle your batteries and how to get the local cops to do their job. She was an enviably perfect mother and the wife of Walter's dreams. Together with Walter - environmental lawyer, commuter cyclist, total family man - she was doing her small part to build a better world.

Unforgettable
Revisado: 09-25-10
The Berglunds and their co-conspirators are unforgettable characters, painfully drawn from bits and pieces of a suburban landscape familiar to many of our generation. Franzen weaves the chapters of his novel with such patience and skill that when one character's story stopped and another's began, I felt only momentary loss. The narrator is excellent (although I agree with the criticism of the stereotypical Indian dialect) and Franzen has created another masterpiece.

Historia
It begins on one of Rome's least-known hills, the Aventino, in the public piazza fronting the mansion of the Knights of Malta. There, a curious keyhole to the knights' estate reveals an astonishing view, a direct line across the Tiber to the dome of St. Peters in the distance.

Another great Hewson story
Revisado: 04-17-10
If you like David Hewson, you may find this episode of the Nic Costa series to be one of his best. Hewson continues to be a master of mystery...he's a very good writer, both with plot and language. I have enjoyed all of the Costa stories, but this has been my favorite to date. This is the same narrator used for the previous two (I think) and he's very good. If you're new to Hewson, you might want to start at the beginning of the Costa story. I can't wait to listen to the next episode.

Historia
Libby Day was seven when her mother and two sisters were murdered in "The Satan Sacrifice of Kinnakee, Kansas". As her family lay dying, little Libby fled their tiny farmhouse into the freezing January snow. She lost some fingers and toes, but she survived, and famously testified that her 15-year-old brother, Ben, was the killer. Twenty-five years later, Ben sits in prison, and troubled Libby lives off the dregs of a trust created by well-wishers who've long forgotten her.

While some of the scenes are challenging for vegans or PETA folks, this is a well written, well paced, well narrated piece of fiction. Difficult to put down--intelligently written.
