The Tough Hombre...James M. Cain
HARD-NOSED JAMES M. CAIN books are a trip. The macho author of tough tales could spin some vigorous, sleekly modern prose,,I have recently enjoyed again 'Serenade' (his harsh book on the opera singer having a hard time ) and also I liked 'Postman Always Rings Twice' a Cain book with many twists. The man is uncanny...he writes so well.

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....
