Michael Chabon - Maps and Legends


Not a real exciting book just a collection of non fiction work from Chabon. A lot of what he has written, he actually used it in his talk last year when I saw him at the Tattered Cover discussing his book, "The Yiddish Policeman's Union" Also a fair amount of work on his love of Sherlock Holmes. Did find some of his analysis interesting and especially his difficulties in writing his second novel. Wow to write 1,500 pages and spending almost 5 years writing something and having it just collapse and not go to a book. Interesting...any good book notheing very jaw dropping but overall a good simple book.
