Stone Junction by Jim Dodge, intro by Pynchon, was good.
Call It Sleep by Henry Roth was good on the second try.
A Fan's Notes, Fred Exley, great!
Hotel Honolulu, Paul Theroux, a favorite.
Omensetter's Luck by William Gass was one of the most unusual and
interesting
books I've read.
Point of No Return by John Marquand, very good.
A literature professor friend got me hooked on James Lee Burke and Michael
Dibdin,
if you want to stay up late turning pages and cursing yourself for having
too much fun.
I'd put Henning Mankell on that list, too.
