Book Review:
Twice Booker Prize-winner Peter Carey's ''Theft: A Love Story'' is a brilliant and moving exploration of art, fraud, and redemption. Narrated by the twin voices of artist Butcher Bones and his damaged brother Hugh, the story ranges from rural Australia to Manhattan. At its heart is the powerful tale of affection between the two brothers. This rudely brilliant, infuriatingly beautiful work of art showcases Carey's extraordinary flair for language. A funny, gorgeous steal of a book that is marvellously enjoyable.
