Some time back, on NPR, I heard that the Nobel Prize for Literature went to Patrick Modiano http://www.npr.org/2014/10/09/354792697/french-novelist-patrick-modiano-wins-literature-nobel. The story highlighted one of his books: Missing Person http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_Person_(novel). We talked about it at our Mystery Book Club, and I suggested it for a future read. However, when I went looking for a copy of the book, the prices were outrageous. A member of the book club suggested Amazon, and sure enough, they were offering a copy at a reasonable price. But they kept sending me emails regarding the fact that they could not procure a copy at the price stated. Until recently.
Today, I have received the book. It is a slim novel. I hope it will be an interesting read.
