Topic: What Book Am I?

Posted by: kaddarsgirl

Subject: What Book Am I?
Date: Sep 02 12

This works like the movie and people threads. You ask yes/no questions, and the person who correctly guesses the book gets to pick the next one.

Books can be either fiction or non-fiction, must be classified as a novel or novella. This means no plays, poems, or short stories.

I will begin with:

What book am I?

The old reply to thread function was removed because it got to the point where people weren't even reading the announcements and assuming, by default, that they were somehow being wronged or forgotten or insulted or abused or cheated out of something in some manner.

Nope, not that one. I don't know how much of a clue this is, but the series is set on the west coast.

Devil in a Blue Dress?

That's the one! Walter Mosley's first Easy Rawlins novel. That series (to my mind, at least) is far better than the one he's writing now.

Your turn, Toby.

War is of critical importance but not the main theme.

Written in 21st century.

"Postwar" by Tony Judt

Is the author male?

Reply #1292. Dec 15 12, 10:43 AM

It details the lives of others, not so much the author's.

The author is male. It's later than "Postwar".

The author is well known in England for work other than writing.

He was also a university Professor.

Not that one, Upstart.

There's a family, once rich beyond the dreams of avarice.

The Rothschilds: Portrait of a Dynasty ?

On the right track, Paul.

The Rothschilds were peers of this family. The thread that binds the family memoir together involves a collection.
