Excerpted from Amazon.com
Veteran bestselling author Leon Uris (Exodus, Trinity) stays true to form with A God in Ruins, delivering yet another vast and vigorous novel about politics and history, right and wrong, love and loss. This time his country of choice is the United States, on the eve of the 2008 presidential election.

RELEASE NOTES:

I bought this for 15 cents at a library and intended to read it. I'm reducing the height of Mount To-Be-Read instead. Maybe Grayflank will catch it.

Ah! There it was, sitting pretty and unsuspecting on the chair in the lobby when I snatched it. The book that was sitting with it is still there at 8pm. I might take it when I leave at midnight, or I might leave it there. This book seemed more my cup of tea.

Thanks LF!

I had always thought that Leon Uris might be too high brow for me. As it turns out, I DID have to look up one word: Kristalnacht. Otherwise, it was a wonderful and accessible tale with a nice sense of humor or a sprinkling of irony (depending on your take, I suppose).

RELEASE NOTES:

Leaving at the bus stop in front of Brick Plaza; maybe the book will travel a bit.
