conversations.value: Grade 8 Up&mdash;Claire and Peter are friendly acquaintances at their New York City high school. Jasper is a freshman in college. They attend a mutual friend's party, and Peter and Jasper make a date for the evening of September 11, 2001. They reschedule and have an excruciating date a week later. Claire and Jasper meet again by chance at Ground Zero when neither can sleep. Claire is called to action, Peter is reverent, and Jasper, a kind of "expert dodger," can't feel a thing. The three come to develop a deep friendship. the author's character development is quick and seamless. He defines the trio's personae by how they perceive the tragedy, how they interact, and how they observe the world. The author's prose has never been deeper in thought or feeling. His writing here is especially pure&mdash;unsentimental, restrained, and full of love for his characters and setting. Though the trio's talks and emails are philosophically sophisticated, <I>Love Is the Higher Law</I> is steadily paced and tightly, economically written. Discussion of the U.S. invasion of Iraq feels like overkill, but it brings the novel to an appropriately queasy end. the author captures the mood of post-9/11 New York exquisitely, slashed open to reveal a deep heart.&mdash;<I>Johanna Lewis, New York Public Library</I> END
