Sherwood Anderson: Winesburg, Ohio.
Paul Auster: The Book of Illusions.
THE TWO GREATS
-Anderson: "In telling tales of themselves people constantly spoiled the tale in telling. They had some notion of how a story should be told got from reading. Little lies crept in. They had done something mean and tried to justify some action that for the tale's sake did not need justification." (A Story Teller's Story)
-Auster: "Never before have I been so aware of the rift between thinking and writing. For the past few days, in fact, I have begun to feel that the story I am trying to tell is somehow incompatible with language, that the degree to which it resists language is an exact measure of how closely I have come to saying something important and then when the moment arrives for me to say one truly important thing, I will not be able to say it." (The Invention of Solitude)
Barry Hannah: Yonder Stands Your Orphan.
Hannah: Redeemer.
Robinson Jeffers: Selected Poems.
The vision of an American radical.
Denis Johnson: Resuscitation of a Hanged Man.
"Did God really kill Himself?"
Bob Hicok: Animal Soul (poems).
I discovered Hicok back in 1992 when I came across his first book, Bearing Witness (regrettably no longer in print), in the window of an indie bookstore here in Chicago. His voice did not judge me; never has.
Jim Harrison: Returning to Earth.
Go to his MySpace page and read his "About Me." Enough said.
