In the Clear

Insomnia
He always loved the jazzed up feeling when he walked into a casino. This story of the New Jersey seashore is a keeper. Steve Lopez does a good job catching the way local people speak. In a sense Albert LaRosa grew up in the display window of his father's hardware ...

The Soloist: A Lost Dream, an Unlikely Friendship, and the Redemptive Power of Music
Steve Lopez

Putnam Adult, 2008

The Soloist
The Soloist by Steve Lopez was such an excellent read. I related to the music side because I am a pianist and the mental illness side. I've never had Schizophrenia, but when feeling down I know how revitalizing music is. This was a warm, touching story that pulls you ...

Third and Indiana
I recently attended a graduate class and heard this novel being discussed by high school teachers. Though the content and language are not appropriate for me (el ed), I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was a consistently engaging read. I also saw many levels in the ...

Road to Perdition
Max Allan Collins, Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez, ...

Titan Books Ltd, 2005

You must choose a road for yourself.
This is a great black and white "noir" graphic novel. There was a movie based on it, which you may have seen. The book is better, in my opinion. It is masterfully written, and the art is great. It's almost 300 pages long, but it just flies by. Highly recommended.
