No Stephen King, no Biography of X, no Nothing to See Here, would sub Underworld for another DeLillo, Lot 49 for a different Pynchon, funny to have Native Son and Erasure on there, don't think Peyton Place needs to be there, Sleepless Nights is better than Speedboat, I'm not a huge fan of I Love Dick but understand its importance... but ya know they wouldn't have to take any of them off just add more!
I figured that Biography of X would have been left behind at the first breaking. And I'm all in for the cutting, even if the numbers are arbitrary. Slash away, critic! Go ahead, post another "take"!
But maybe missing . . .
-Stephen Crane Red Badge of Courage
-Ambrose Bierce short stories
-Eudora Welty short stories
-Jack London Call Of The Wild
-Leonard Gardner Fat City
Very, very pleased at the shoutout but more importantly the inclusion of The Octopus (and Suttree)! I felt warm and fuzzy😁
Let's hear the takedowns!
