Wally Lamb's latest book comes undone
By Randi Barnes | August 21, 1998"I Know This Much Is True," Wally Lamb's first attempt in the shadow of his bestselling debut novel "She's Come Undone," is a weighty book -- both in subject matter and sheer volume -- that tries hard to fill the shoes of its praised predecessor, but ultimately falls short. Dominick Birdsey, the narrator of this lengthy tale, is a floundering man dealing with the schizophrenia of his twin brother, Thomas.
