Oh yes!!! This is a must read. I read this book many years ago and I loved it. I still recommend this book on a regular basis to my coworkers and anyone I see looking at Wally's books in my local bookstore.
She's Come Undone, is also a good read!
Wally taught writing for years to students in highschool. His writing flows very smoothly and seamlessly from sentence to sentence. A pure joy to read a book written by a writing instructor. You'll be able to tell immediately he is a writing teacher.
I've loved all of Wally Lamb's books. The hour I first believed was very good also. I'm starting we are water tonight. I haven't been disappointed yet.
This is the only one of his I've read, and I did really like it...but it was just so long, and it seemed that some parts weren't even necessary. Are any of his other books like that, kind of overly descriptive?

Give his books a try! Definitely worth it!
