On my to-read list:  Herman Wouk’s new novel, The Lawgiver.  Wouk is 97 years old and he’s written a book that’s received starred reviews.  And here’s what the Washington Post’s reviewer concluded:  “[I]n some essential way, this book about a movie about a book is also about the very act of writing books.  Wouk reminds us of the eternal value of storytelling while he shows 30- and 50- and 80-year-old whippersnappers how it’s done.”
