Solid video, Hard Rain Falling is one I would for sure like to read.

[@pleasereadyourbook]

Let me know what you think of it.

I liked _Love in a Fallen City_ and _Lust Caution_ very much, and need to pick up more Chang. Everything else you’ve talked about sounds interesting.

[@pleasereadyourbook]

I've been looking for Lust, Caution but it doesn't seem to be available here, but will keep an eye out for it.

[@JamesRuchala]

These all aound good. Ive read none of them but I have a copy of Hard rain falling around here somewhere

[@pleasereadyourbook]

Give it a read when you have time, it's a great book.

I have really enjoyed the novels I have read by James Salter so far - they achieve a kind of intensity that is rarely found. I have his collected stories on the shelf so it sounds like I should get to those this year. Anyone being mentioned alongside Raymond Carver is a must read (and I would put Tobias Wolff there).

[@pleasereadyourbook]

Yeah, Salter is a real master of the short story, let me know what you think after you read a few.

Hard Rain Falling and Lord of Dark Places introduced me to an american literature scene that I was completely ignorant of. An americana of sorts that goes beyond the Kerouacs and the McCarthies.

[@pleasereadyourbook]

I don't know Lord of Dark Places, will have to check that out.
