The Pesthouse, by Jim Crace
I can’t think of a living writer who crafts more meticulous, beautiful prose than Crace. Everything is alive in his most recent books – characters, and landscape, sentences and chapters. It’s marvelous. This book, a literary fiction about the future, is both love story and meditation on the meaning and purpose of America.
