This is one of the best books I've read in the past year. Having lived through the events at the core of this novel, it was fascinating how McCann was able to weave them together around the man on the wire. It's a book that's hard to put down. It also led me to view the documentary "Man on a Wire" -- am sorry now that I did not take the time to see on the big screen. Pick this one up -- you won't be sorry you did!
