This week's Washington Post Book World has some reviews of what look like excellent books: Everything is Illuminated By Jonathan Safran Foer, a debut novel by a 24 year old Washingtonian, about the narrator, Jonathan Safran Foer, who travels to the Ukraine in search of the woman who rescued his grandfather from Nazi extermination; The Horned Man by James Lasdun, about the strange occurances in the life of Lawrence Miller, a professor of gender studies in New York. When Michael Dirda says he couldn't put the book down, it's usually a good sign. There are others; check them out. In the same edition is Poet's Choice: By Edward Hirsch, the column that explores poets and poetry every week, about Gary Snyder, one of the men I admire a great deal.
