Frankie Presto was a lovely, quick, easy read skimming over the who's who of the history of music. The narrative spanned over 3 continents and included a bit of magical realism. The narrative intertwined the charmed and cursed characters in and out of each others lives and made me want to listen to some Django Rineheart and Ella Fitzgerald again. I haven't read anything by Mitch Albom since this break through best seller Tuesday's with Morrie decades ago, and was pleasantly surprised at this book.
