Virgil Thompson hits the scene with his new crime and punishment novel, "Final Things," about a 32-year-old man waiting to die for the crimes of a madman. There is an eerie quality to book's voice: the viewpoint is 99% the main character's voice and it is written in first person. There are some spooky elements as well, like the main character's brush with the paranormal and his growing belief that the actual killer has somehow targeted him. This group is for Virgil Thompson fans who want to discuss (and give opinions about) the book and its elements. The book contains mature and violent themes.
