Review of 'The Boys from Brazil' on 'Goodreads'

When I read the blurb for this novel, I scoffed at the premise. I'm still scoffing at the premise of it. Another W for Ira Levin, the man can't miss. The writing was just so fluid, conversations never awkward, inner monologue not corny and exposition never too obnoxious. I think his experience writing plays makes the way he sets scenes so engaging. The book really cemented him as my favourite author of all time. Also found it interesting how applicable the mindset of the protag was to current circumstances and perhaps even current public opinion.
