The Caveman's Valentine
The Caveman's Valentine | George Dawes Green
4 posts | 11 read | 7 to read
Romulus Ledbetter wasn't always homeless. He once was a devoted husband, father, and musician with a bright future. He now forages for food in the trash cans of the city's better neighborhoods and wages a strenuous one-man war against Cornelius Gould Stuyvesant, an evil -- and imaginary -- power broker who is responsible for society's ills, as well as the sinister Y- and Z-rays that are corrupting humankind. Then one wintry night, Rom finds a corpse at the mouth of his cave that rouses his well-defined sense of ethics and launches him on an obsessive quest for answers. Forced to reconnect with society, Rom leaves his world and journeys through a spiraling web of clues and hunches, straight into a sinister den of money, temptation, and murder--otherwise known as the "civilized" world.

Shortly after starting, I realised I had read this years ago when it first came out. And I wondered how I had forgotten it because it is so dammed good. It is difficult to drop a reader behind the eyes of a really unusual character. Green does it with out a bump. If you enjoy character led crime books you love this. Great secondary characters, great action, great twist what more do you want?

This is one of my all time favourite books, and I only picked it up because I saw the title while working at a book store on Valentine's Day. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I just took a short break to (unsuccessfully) shop for bookcases and (successfully) shop for books. 😂

Now back to reading! This was a present from @megfab . She thought I'd really dig it! I don't know anything about it, other than it is also a Samuel L. Jackson movie (which I haven't seen.)

Here I gooooooooooo! #biblioweekend

Marchpane Intriguing title! 8y
Carol Bookcases are sooo hard to shop for. I feel your pain! The pretty ones never hold enough, but neither do the ugly ones come to think of it 😂😂😂 8y
Alfoster This is a really interesting book! I think you're going to like it!! 8y

balletbookworm Best bookcases I have are the 9-cube cubbies from Lowe's/Menard's/Target stacked two high (downstairs) and legal bookcases from Office Max/Staples (made for lawyers offices and are, appropriately enough, in my office) 8y
Lizpixie I built my own. Well, the hubby built, I painted.🔨 8y
Girl_Power I loved this book! 8y
GlitteryOtters Ugh, bookcase shopping is so hard!!! My best ones are ex-bookstore cast offs I bought from my former employer for $5 each when they were getting rid of some extras. I wish I could have a house full of them, but until I learn to be a master bookcase craftswoman, I'll stick with my few great bookstore ones and a half dozen good, slightly too expensive nicer ones from IKEA. 8y
Zelma I was thrilled our house had built ins. Bookcases are tough to decide on. I think I'm going to make some floating shelves to help with overflow - some decent wood, Mr. Z can rout the edges, I can sand and stain and just add some brackets. 8y
Amandajoy Must be a trend today. Tried to buy bookshelves so I can finish unpacking & they had to be ordered. So I soothed myself by buying more books 🤓 8y

TBT! I picked this one up solely because of the title (I came across it on Valentine's Day many years ago) and I'm so glad I did. It's a really interesting murder mystery with a somewhat unreliable narrator. They made it into an okay movie with Samuel L. Jackson, but the book is excellent.
