You have some unique insights into issues in the USA's multi-racial urban society. You liked my review of Policing the Black Man. Would you consider adding your thoughts to the review's comments or otherwise expressing them? H Balikov

Ah, I just saw this, so will make a note to do this, sorry, HB...

I live in Grand Rapids and know that good Schaafsma name! Would you be willing to review my new novel? It's set in a fictional Michigan city you'll recognize at an out-dated zoo, an urban farm and a defunct gypsum mine. The narrative follows an unlikely pair of women as they take on powerful forces that threaten the land, the wildlife and the people they love. I'd like to know what you think.

Dave Schaafsma:
Thank you, David. I feel Cormac McCarthy is currently the greatest writer alive (though Tom Wolfe is quite good). I find a lot of the post-modern authors works exhaustive, talent-less, and boring. Regurgitating cliches. I think the sincere works with little to no irony is refreshing that Cormac delivers. Any other authors you suggest?
