First novel since The Curious Incident of the Of the Dog in the Nighttime.
Not a crossover book though. He is a good writer.
Retired and with a dysfunctional family, this has a cast of great characters. It takes time to get to know and like them all but well worth it.
Funny and sad, thought provoking but never shocking.
Score 8.5/10
