I didn't find a lot of things to discuss from the book, but the notion of free will (and how the author deals with it) is kind of interesting.

Soon I'll start reading. ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Chris OConnor) http://booktalk.yuku.com/topic/3519 Sun, 04 Jun 2006 09:56:30 GMT http://booktalk.yuku.com/topic/3517/t/About-the-Author-Audrey-Niffenegger.html
