John O'Hara Was A Divine Social Critic
HEMINGWAY liked John O'Hara and that goes for me too. His social constructs on the harsh aspects of high society are valid depictions pouncing on the brusque variables of American life. His 'Appointment in Samarra' and 'Ten North Frederick' rocked along like a an absurd Benny Goodman riff. I loved the crazy book called 'Butterfield 8' because it had so much zing.

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....
