the book you're not reading
I already told you the best book you're not reading is John Dufresne's "Love Warps the Mind a Little." Have you read it yet? Get on it. All his books are great, including the more recent "Requiem, Mass."
And while you're at the store, pick up a few of Castle Freeman's books. This guy can write. His books are so good, you'll wish you're written them. I sure as hell do. His books are deceptive--the stories are so tight, so compact, the dialogue so natural, the pacing so perfect that Freeman makes it look easy. It's not.
"Go With Me," "All That I Have," "Judgment Hill" and "My Life and Adventures" all are worth reading. More than that, actually--they're must reads.
So, Dufresne and Freeman. Any questions?
