Read from May 04 to 08, 2010

The book is divided into 3 sections -- a section of vignettes / short stories where Truman is in the room, the novella "Handcarved Coffins", and a section of snippets of gossipy dialog. While some of the first and third sections of the book are interesting and amusing, the real centerpiece and the reason to read the book is "Handcarved Coffins", an unsolved series of murders with well drawn, well observed heros, victims, and villains.
