Notre-Dame: A Short History of the Meaning of Cathedrals by Ken Follett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
The very short book illustrates to me two things. First, how a writer reacts to tragedy that he feels a part of. And second, how a practiced writer writes a short book, or long article, to relate a couple of heart-felt points, using distinctly different kinds of illustrative stories. A nice essay on an interesting topic.
