Mark Helprin's "Memoir from Antproof Case"=What a great book!

I just finished and what a masterpiece it is. It reminded me a litle of Marquez. I don't know why. Anyone else read it?

2. I tried "Winter's Tale" about 25 years ago

and it didn't work for me then, but I think I'll give it another shot. I'll check out Antproof Case, too -- but eating a turkey anus? :wtf:

3. Trust me. It's a great book.

I just checked "Winter's Tale" out of the library. So I might have a problem with that. But "Memoirs" wasn't a wierd book at all. I was pleasantly surprised.
