The Final Solution by Michael Chabon

Wednesday February 23, 2005
The Final Solution by Michael ChabonIn The Final Solution, Michael Chabon delivers a suspenseful tale of compassion and wit that re-imagines the classic detective story.

In retirement in the English countryside, an 89-year old man, vaguely recollected by the locals as a once-famous detective, is more concerned with his beekeeping than his fellow man. Into his life wanders Linus Steinman, nine years old and mute, who has escaped from Nazi Germany with his sole companion: an African grey parrot.
