Jim Thompson...Super Author

MARVELOUS JIM THOMPSON is overwhelming.  I read his wow, powerhouse books and I find them amazing.  The man has an uncanny ability to put together sly and profound plot lines.  I truly believe his novels...'A Swell Looking Babe' and 'The Grifters' are terrific examples of powerhouse writing.  We need more of this brand of good tough guy stories.  Like George V, Higgins, Mr, Thompson can spin a mighty interesting story line.

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.
