10 Terrific Reads of 2009
The books that gave us comfort, joy, and lots to talk about.
#8: Some Things That Meant the World to Me, by Joshua Mohr.
"Meet Rhonda, a man who spends his haunted, liquor-fueled days dumpster-diving for redemption. With his first line, "I'd like to brag about the night I saved a hooker's life," debut writer Joshua Mohr sucks you into Some Things That Meant the World to Me. Charles Bukowski fans will dig the grit in this seedy novel, a poetic rendering of postmodern San Francisco culminating in, of all places, Home Depot."
