THE GARDEN OF LAST DAYS by Andre Dubus III


Hardback
W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN 0393041654

p. 122, 2nd line, repointing should be repainting (I think):
"... repointing the cinder block wherever it needed it, .... ."

p. 199, the last sentence does not make sense:
"... to distract him the fact and that she was sitting here... ."

p. 204, in the first sentence, toom should be room:
"It was almost soothing being back in the dim glow of the VIP toom."

p. 454, 6th line, receding is misspelled:
"He closes his eyes, the sadness receeding... ."

Characters intertwine thru out the book. The resolve all of the plot lines by the end of the text. Interesting play on the authors knowledge of the Middle East, Terrorism, and religious aspects on a personal level, ie the jihadist. Text formatted for easy stop and start. Good book not quite as good as the Kiterunner.
