Wow--I didn't expect to like this book as much as i did. I thought it would just be interesting--but it was so much more. It was deep, sad, heart touching, and memorable. The story of two men--one to die the next day, one there to oversee the death. they spend the night talking and find out they are not so different, they both are men and both have lives not so unalike. One bad man, one good man, both men in the end--I loved this read, read it in one afternoon--could not put it down.
