And I MUST try the Boddard books.<br /><br />Right now I am recommending Jim Harrison's The Great Leader, which the author calls a "faux mystery". A dark commedy about aging, cops, wilderness, love, sex, family, and a pedophilic cult leader. Jim Harrison is one of the few living American writers worthy of a Nobel. Legends of the Fall is his most famous novel to date.slydernoreply@blogger.com
