Let the Great World Spin by Colum McCann

This is a definite NO! Do not read this book. I got about 75 pages into it and quit. The quality of the writing was quite good, but the content was both very depressing and very slow. It might not have been quite as depressing as Cormac McCarthy's "The Road," but that was probably because I did not read this one to the bitter end like I did that one. You don't need a review of the content. So, I am not motivated to read any more of this guy's stuff.
