Brilliant book by an incredible author: David Mitchell.

No, sorry, it's not a business book, but I hope it's ok that I post it . If you like reading, like language and words, then read this.

From the "brill" British vernacular, to Mitchell's prose, this book totally sucked me in, I felt like I was a teenager again, traipsing around the woods with the 13-year old narrator.

Mitchell writes beautifully, and the 13 chapters of this book could almost stand on their own as short stories. But they interlock perfectly.

Very moving, very poignant. Highly recommended

A favorite quote from the book (which is quoted from Susan Sontag's "On Photography"):

"By slicing out this moment and freezing it ... all photographs testify to time's relentless melt."

I'm so happy you posted a non-business book. I read to relax and escape my job a little, not to double my profit margins.. haha!

I've had this book recommended to me by a few friends, and it's sitting on my bookshelf waiting patiently for me to finish a couple of other things. I can't wait to read it... I heard it's very "roddy doyle"-ish
