I've only seen the movie, which I think is almost overwhelmed
by wonderful acting in striking scenes. Somehow the plot just
hasn't stuck. Which means the book is on my must-read list,
though that list has become so big I fear it's lost its
purpose.

The movie is a good adaption of the book, it doesn't touch
the book though. Ironweed is one of the best books out there
and a Pulitzer winner. Ironweed is the third and last of
Kennedy's Albany novels and it meets all hardboiled and noir
definitions I can think of. Worthy of putting at the top of a
Books to read stack.
I haven't read Roscoe yet but I will get to it I'm
sure. Kennedy is an outstanding author.
