******** Thanks for commenting, Ed. I've got another Wade
Miller title that Al Guthrie recommended a long time ago. I
think it's a 50s title, too. The wife and I just got back
from town. She dragged me by a thrift store and I found THE
DEVIL TO PAY by Earl Thompson. I had never heard of it
before. I've read CALDO LARGO, TATTOO, and GARDEN OF SAND,
and I thought that was all he'd written. I'm really excited
about finding it. I rank GARDEN OF SAND up there with
McCarthy's BLOOD MERIDIAN and Hemingway's SUN ALSO RISES as
one of the best books I've ever read.
