Engrossing and well-spun tale

I've been reading your Cuba book. How to say this: wow. You're such a remarkably good writer; the book is such an engrossing and well-spun tale full of the kind of observations and insights that make a book worth reading. God only knows how to sell things like this -- the connection between "good" and "sales" is pretty weak. I'll certainly leave a note at Amazon and recommend it to everyone (I actually have a copy to give away, having bought one before the camp.)
