A Man Without a Country
« on: January 06, 2011, 08:08:42 AM »
I always liked KV's writing style, and this is more of the same. Book is a sort of a twisted memoir - that is the only way I can think of categorizing it. A little too politicized though...I can see about a quarter of this book not making sense to readers 15 years from now. My favorite part of the book is KV;s explanation about not getting nominated for the noble prize for literature  :D :D

This is the first book I read cover to cover in the past few years (other than work related) - I'm pretty proud of myself.
