Let the Great World Spin by Colum McCann

3.0

---

A hypnotic piece of writing that meanders through the loosely-connected lives of several New Yorkers during the 1970s. This book was a thoughtful example of writing that I don’t necessarily “like” but I found it a worthwhile brain exercise. If the description captures your imagination, you’ll not be disappointed. Oh, and this is definitely not a speed-read - take it slow and enjoy the journey.
