To honor the passing of Mr. Herman Wouk I‘m gonna read three of my favorite books written by him. This is my first and favorite. If you haven‘t read this book before you‘re really missing a masterful work of fiction. After this one Winds of War and War and Remembrance to follow. He truly is a master story teller.

GatheringBooks i haven‘t heard of him yet! this does look compelling. stacked! 5y

This is my all-time favorite book. All about the rise and fall of a young author from the coal mines of Kentucky who arrives in New York in 1946 with the next great American novel! https://wp.me/p32mlf-qa

This book is absolutely epic. I‘ve read all of Mr. Wouk‘s books and I believe this is my favorite. His ability to craft beautiful dialogue between characters is an art few do better. Best book I‘ve read this year. Classic.

AmyG Thanks. I‘ve never read this one! 6y
Jamesmelvinmitchell @AmyG might be hard to find but truly worth the effort. Merry Christmas 6y

I read this 35 years ago and have decided to pick it up again. Funny how much a person forgets after so long. I love how Mr. Wouk doesn‘t just develop his major characters but you learn to love and hate the minor ones as well

LeahBergen I read this over 30 years ago, too. 😮 6y
