OMG. Loved that book. Loved TWENTIETH CENTURY GHOSTS even more, if that’s possible. I definitely think he has his own voice – you can see his father’s influence, but other influences, too, especially in the more surreal short stories.
Since you're such a fan of Stephen King (as I am), I was wondering if you'd read Heart Shaped Box by his son Joe Hill. It took me back to the days of reading Carrie and Christine in junior high - the old "couldn't put it down" and wondering all day long when I would get a chance to read. You know, when the baby's nursing on the Boppy you can safely hold a book with your free hand....
If you haven't read it - I HIGHLY recommend it. If you have, what did you think of it? Do you think he has his own voice?
Thanks for doing this. It's extremely cool.
