A review by starsal
The Yiddish Policemen's Union by Michael Chabon
4.0
Well, so much for [b:Winter Study|2039223|Winter Study (Anna Pigeon, book 14)|Nevada Barr|http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51AKEa-ex4L._SL75_.jpg|2044086] being my last mystery for a while.
But, besides for both falling under that broad category, these are very different books. The Yiddish Policemen's Union is about redemption and making the best that you can of an imperfect, and often scary and broken, world.
It's written with Chabon's wonderful clarity, humor, drama and lush style. It's wonderful fun to read, thought-provoking and hard to put down. His characters are real, flawed, and the kind of people you'd like to have dinner with. I can't think of better things to say about a book.
