TransAtlantic by Colum McCann
4.0
Colum McCann has created a highly engaging novel with "TransAtlantic." He was able to masterfully depict the magnitude of a moment in a character's life to such a palpable degree as to transport the reader to be physically present with that person. The lives of all the central characters are interconnected in such an artful manner, yet each figure in each storyline is portrayed in a multidimensional way to portray their own very real humanity.
TransAtlantic is worth a second read and inspires an interest in his other works, including "Let the Great Word Spin", winning the National Book Award in 2009.
