MUSTWORTHINESS The deeply romantic narrator of this year's breakout novel, Andrew Sean Greer's ''The Confessions of Max Tivoli,'' is born into the body of a grizzled old man and grows younger every year until we last see him in 1930. ''To distract myself from writing, I was singing Bob Dylan's 'My Back Pages,''' says Greer, 33. ''You know, 'I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now.' I thought, I should write a character like that.''
NEXT ''Another heartbreaker novel, set in San Francisco in the 1950s.''
