Query: What an intelligent and delicious read!

I'd been meaning to read "The Handyman" since it came out a year or two ago, but somehow never got around to it. Then, last week, when I was down and out with the flu, I picked the thing up figuring I'd probably only skim a few pages. Au contraire: I was immediately (and happily) swept into the book's thrall. First of all, Carolyn See's fine prose is wonderfully crafted. Yet she has done her work with such a light touch that the reader is only aware of his/her enjoyment, not the writer's effort. The good-natured plot is well worth the trip, for its own sake. But the deeper themes See has laced through her pages (deft and lovely meditations on the nature of creativity, and the varying paths one trods to discover meaning in one's life) make the book's overall effect greater than the sum of its individual parts. "The Handyman," is enchanting, redemptive, smart and just plain fun to read. Thanks Carolyn. I needed that.
