The Baltimore Sun has asked a few local authors to ‘share the titles they’re enjoying right now’. One of them writes:
I’ve just finished Kent Haruf’s “Benediction” – one of the best books I’ve read all year… I found it both a delight to read and a heartbreaker.
It’s good to have my own opinion of the book thus endorsed. And the local Baltimore writer who’s doing so? A certain Anne Tyler. (Thanks: JL.)
