Really Good Reads: Let the Great World Spin

Let the Great World Spin is one book I wish I had marked up with underlines, stars, and arrows. There were lines that would come out of nowhere and stop me on the page. Now that I have the book in my hands again I would love to flip to the page and marvel in Colum McCann's art. I'm not a huge fan of rereading books (there's so much out there to read!) but this is one book I think I'll wait awhile and then read again.

The story begins the morning of Philippe Petit's tightrope walk between the twin towers and from there twists and weaves the lives of the characters in unexpected ways. Lyrical and heartbreaking.
