This is a fascinating book to be reading now. The biggest surprise so far is that people in the 1600's dealt with plague pretty much the way we are dealing with it now - there were quarantines, the rich left town, everyone else had to decide whether to risk getting sick by running businesses, the city kept tallies of deaths and assigned physicians to help the poor, and doctors risked their lives treating people.

Great so far - learning that Ralph worked with HST because it was always fun and inspirational, but Hunter didn't seem to get the idea of being nice.

Two brothers, painfully obsessing about the distance between what they want themselves and life to be and what they really are.

Good so far, although at first I kept thinking I was reading a book by Don Delillo.
