Forgot to mention an article by Nina King, entitled "Topping the
Charts."
"Twenty-five years later, on today's Book World best-seller list,
thrillers and mysteries hold sway...." "There are books by Danielle
Steel, Lawrence Sanders and Arthur C. Clarke -- Nothing there to
surprise or thrill the reader of today or that of 1972. One notable
exception: Thomas Pynchon's postmodernist meganovel about early U.S.
history, 'Mason & Dixon.'"
Not surprisingly, the best selling hardcover fictions were all by
Grisham.
