Memoirs of a Master Forger is at the top of my list for favorite novels for this year and otherwise. It really was a great book and it led me to obtain (either through purchase or the library) a number of Joyce's other novels. Ended up having a bit of a Joyce marathon. I heartily enjoyed all of the novels I have read by him, some more than others. (The Facts of Life and The Tooth Fairy were fantastic, but The Limits of enchantment, though very well written, was not my cup of tea and Smoking Poppy seemed to have lost the charm of the novels, though that could be attributed to it being the fifth and last book in the marathon.) Definitely an author I recommend. I was happy to see that Memoirs won. Memoirs of a Master Forger is at the top of my list for favorite novels for this year and otherwise.
