Nights at Rizzoli --the writing life
While I was writing Nights at Rizzoli, I was also trying my best to interview people I knew who had worked there.

| One story in this collection reads like a folk tale that's been around for years. If I'd found "Labor" in an anthology of authentic Louisiana Folk Tales, I'd say, yes, right, perfect. That's how good Ryan is as an author. I have other favorites, the ...more | |

| I enjoyed DiRaddo's The Geography of Pluto, but I wasn't prepared for how substantially more developed this novel is, and how enjoyable on several levels. The title refers, of course, to the ongoing plot arc of a maturing gay man attempting to sire a ...more | |

| Certainly doomed, since every little four to five page essay in the book is in essence an obituary. I'm less sure about famous, since I barely knew any of the names here. Someone in the London-New York art axis might do better with that. However, Dan ...more | |

| We tend to forget that Capote began as a "Regional Writer" and a "Southern Writer" because he outgrew that label so quickly with his short stories, Breakfast at Tiffany's and his non-fiction collections. But his second published novel is a charmer, k ...more | |

| This was the first of Banks' books I read in 1995, before it was published in the U.S. It was, however, published in the U.K. by my British publisher, and I was given a copy during my UK-European book tour. My copy vanished, but I got more of his SF ...more | |
