For July, we go Transatlantic

This month we'll be reading Transatlantic by Colum McCann an Irish writer who has certainly lived the Transatlantic experience as he was born in Dublin and now lives in New York. It should certainly be a change of genre from last month's Gone Girl.







Michiko Kakutani had this to say about Colum McCann's Transatlantic.

I thought it might be rather democratic for the author to have his say about what he has written as well. I would have preferred if he sounded more Irish but there's still a touch of lilt there which to my mind makes the story sound more interesting.

Hope you are enjoying the slower pace of this novel as well as the changing scenery as we go Transatlantic.

Happy reading!
