I have one more final to go, but this weekend is a small respite just before. So...I have a few posts to write, and the first is about Michael Chabon's most recent book. For those of you who don't know, Michael Chabon wrote The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay and won a Pulitzer Prize for it -- so you know he's good. The Final Solution, subtitled A Story of Detection, is a thin 130 pages. It takes place in England in 1944, and it involves an old man, a mute boy, an African gray parrot, and a murder. It's good, people. It's good.
