One of the great writers of our time. His works are dense and always have many layers of meaning. American Pastoral is one of a trilogy (The Human Stain and I Married A Communist), and it plumbs the depths of the Sixties and the political and social scene through a character who represents the American ideal. A superb novel both in the way it is written and the subject. Highly recommended

The Power Broker is an excellent piece of historical biography. Even if you are not initially interested in the life of Robert Moses, the writing and the manner in which Caro takes you into his world will make for great reading.
