Sutton
   J.R. Moehringer
'Historical fictionalized novel' about the famed bank robber Willie Sutton.
Very interesting read, as it is based on many facts of his escapes and captures, his banks, his image in the 30s, the Depression years. Plus, it's augmented with the authors imagination of what happens between the lines, what were the reasons for Willie doing what he did.
I enjoyed it, and after a slow start, I couldn't put it down.
