"That which is overdesigned, too highly specific, anticipates outcome; the anticipation of outcome guarantees, if not failure, the absence of grace."
-- William Gibson, All Tomorrow's Parties
The Yiddish Policemen's Union

After months of Amazon recommending it to me, I finally got around to picking up and reading The Yiddish Policemen's Union. I am not awake enough to write a real review, but suffice to say it was highly enjoyable.

If you enjoy quirky noir, you'll love it.

I'll definitely be picking up Chabon's other books.
