Well, the reading threads have been very stagnant lately so to liven things up, have any of you ever read anything by Jeffery Archer? I read Kane and Abel last summer and loved every word. It's a book about a polish immigrant named Wladek [whose name in a strange turn of events becomes that of his father's Abel Rosnovski] and William Lowell Kane. It's hard to explain the plot of this book, because it's so saturated. It is basically the life story of these two men, interesting down the very last page with so many unexpected turns.
It gives a lot of insight into life of the rich during the great depression, but really what gets me about it is how complete it is. No book could ever leave you as fulfilled, nothing could merit to be called a story before this book.
He also wrote very many books, on mostly the same subject [the rich and the poor] and I think he is an extraordinary author who really knows the meaning of a good story.
