    The Painter by Peter Heller. My wife recommended this one to me and I'm glad she did. I don't have the energy any more to read a book through the night, but if I did, it would be this one.

    Besides the gripping story and his finely tuned timing in exposition, Mr. Heller's style is unique and informal, his language forceful and rich.

    I haven't been as pleased with a writer since the first time I read Cormac McCarthy.

    Putting it on my to-read list. Thanks, JLD.

    I'll try it, too. Thanks, James. I'm reading a non-fiction book by Anthony Doerr, Four Seasons in Rome, and re-reading, for about the sixth or seventh time, Angela Carter's Saints and Strangers. Loving both.
