Kane and Abel by Jeffrey Archer

You'd think I only read Archer. I am glad I do.
I just finished the book and I am in daze as I write.
You aren't a book lover if you haven't read this book. There are so many things I love about it but the one thing that has won me is how perfectly Archer has written about life. As time flies by, people change. New people come into their lives and old ones leave. Some are only transient. Here today, gone the next day.
However, life brings you to this one person who is a part of your destiny. That would be William Kane and Abel Rosnovski. Biblical names though.
William is the heir of a large fortune, the son of an accomplished banker. Meanwhile, Abel is a poor Polish immigrant trying to make it big in the States. This book is the story of how their lives are closely entwined because of a rivalry they could not let go of.
It may be complicated but it is essentially the life story of two people. And believe me you are missing out if you dont read this.
Love, rivalry, family, success, guilt and death, this book incorporates every aspect of life. And haven't William and Abel lead incredible lives?
Honestly, you're not human if you dont like this book. It is perfection.
