Adventure, honour and death in 1950s AmericaBookshelf: Review by David BurkeTHE LINCOLN HIGHWAYBY AMOR TOWLESHUTCHINSON €14.99SOMETIMES your experience of a book that has been out for a year or two is so good that you immediately rush out to buy the author’s latest publication. Late last year a keen reader lent me her copy of A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towles, and I was smitten. Written with elegance and wit, and a deep wisdom, the story meanders gently along until some sudden development quickens the reader’s pulse. This is another excellent read, as far from Moscow and its aristocrat as you can get. Emmett has a brother, Billy, ten years younger but with the proverbial old head on young shoulders.
