"Suttree" is also great. It is about Knoxville, TN. of around 1950. I lived in K'ville from 1978 to 2013 and absorbed a lot of the history of the place over the years, so it was easy to envision. Did not care for "The Road", however.

In the movie I was particularly impressed with a future vignette where the language had changed quite a bit but could still be comprehended.

I am always deeply moved by the story. She sent your book to me to read. While acknowledging that it is a novel, it was wonderful to see that it remained historical and Biblical in its accuracy. Great book that I would recommend (and have recommended) to others.

He was critical to the creation and survival of Judaism.
