Raymond Chandler
MR. CHANDLER is a very clever word prosodist. His characters of the 40s leap off the page and get us excited. His work of characterization in 'The Big Sleep' and 'The Long Goodbye' is so very strong. His style reminds one of listening to early Charlie Parker. There is such a zing to the powerful prose of R. Chandler.

Nice Writing
THE GOOD terse writing of Ernest Hemingway is a real joy. He does not use too many adjectives. His 'Torrents' is a fine tome.

COOLING OFF WITH WEST COAST JAZZ is loads of fun. The temp is wildly hot now and so I listened to Art Pepper jazz, grand West Coast stuff....
