Maybe in 10 years if it's still considered important; so few best-sellers pass that test.<br /><br />Your comments about Larson's loquacity lead me to warn you: if you didn't like this book, don't bother picking up <i>Special Topics in Calamity Physics</i>, which believe it or not is a detective story by one Marisha Pessl. Ms. Pessl feels obliged to document almost every statement any character makes with a bibliographic citation (not a footnote; inline in the text!). It took her 300+ pages to get to the damn murder. I am hanging in there out of sheer refusal to be defeated by this absurd book.hederahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01696592301686568456noreply@blogger.com
