A living legend
No body on earth has the ability to transport your thoughts back to the era of World War II like Alan Furst. A master craftsman with a sublime skill. Those who miss his books really really are missing the opportunity to experience what I termed as a masterpiece of literature writer alive. In his genre, Alan Furst has no peers!
