  1. I hope The Way Home is better than his last one, which I thought was not up to his usual standards.

  2. I've never read any of his books. They don't appeal to me.

    Whereas I've read all of Richard Price, for instance. I confess though to not finishing his latest, Lush Life for the reasons of boredom!

    Love, C.

  3. I like Price's writing but with the exception of The Wanderers, he badly needs a strong editorial hand. Freedomland just went on and on and on. Clockers was tighter, although I liked the movie better. I thought the film was one of the most underrated movies of the 90s.
