One of my favorite authors, Pat Conroy, came out with a new book this summer. Entitled South of Broad, it takes place in the late 1960's and, according to the jacket description, goes through the AIDS crisis - so it must go throught he 1980's as well. I just started it last night, but it is classic - Classic - Conroy.
He's one of the few authors where I get so wrapped up in his prose, heavy to be sure, that I get completely wrapped up not only in the story but in the very language of the novel itself and I lose track of time while reading.
Quite frankly, he's one of, if not the only, author I make the time for.
