The Book Of The Year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                   It is that time--to wrap up the year 2016, fast on its way to becoming History, with the most impacting items.

                                    Nathan Hill's first novel, "The Nix" was the best thing I read all year, a moving, Dickeseque tale, with Doctorow overtone, of a boy and his mother navigating their way through the American social fabric of the Sixties to the present.

                                      I could not tear my eyes away from it, while reading, devouring this faster than other, shorter volumes read all year.  A stunning debut, by an author I want to follow!!!!!!!!!!!
