A review by schopflin
The Burglar Who Counted The Spoons by Lawrence Block

fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character

3.5

I really enjoyed this although it's really not about the mystery, much more about literature and obscure facts. I realise that Block has chosen to keep Bernie the same age (or he would be about 75 now) while New York ages and changes, but I am still uncomfortable with the number of college-age women he shags.
