My wife bought me Michael Chabon's recent book, "Gentlemen of the Road," after she noticed that the first chapter is called:

On Discord Arising from the Excessive Love of a Hat

I wonder if she was trying to tell me something....

Author sounds like a KOOK! The very idea of too many hats! The very idea that many hours spent every day online and on many weekend days looking through yard sales and thrift stores is obsessive!
What rubbish!
Burn the book!

You can have my hats when you pry this off my cold dead noggin and find all the places I've hidden all the rest!

deanzat: sounds like an intriguing read! when you've formed an opinion of the text in question, you might pass it along in the "what are you reading" thread in The Observation Bar.

Chabon's an interesting writer.
