Specimen Days - Michael Cunningham


An intriguing and complex book that will make you think about love, art, America, and life. What more could you want from one book? This is actually composed as three separate tales, but unified with the characters and themes. Three different time periods and three different styles of writing. You wonder how these completely different types of stories fit together, but the fine skill of the writer makes it work. Highly recommended! Extremely original. This is the type of book you want to start reading again the minute you finish it.
