I have met you before and I am a fan of yours. Our bookclub featured your first book back when we started in 2002 right here in Raleigh NC. HINT HINT I am surprised you are featuring Fredrick Cooper's book because I thought it was a romance novel and you didn't like romance novels? Marriage must be agreeing with you, and I enjoy your insight into this book.<BR/><BR/>I think the Friends and Lovers in Black and White book is also on cushcity.com by the way and not just Amazon. Will this author go on tour if you know? Likewise with Mat Johnson?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34770350.post-60590058435387048842007-03-01T12:08:00.000-05:002007-03-01T12:08:00.000-05:00Mat Jphnson as Truman Capote--cwmon dude.

I enjoyed Drop because I had an interesting road in interning with these brothers doing advertising in Detroit before we hit the Bay Area.

I was in college when Mat Johnson's Drop was published and I thought at first it was by a British author. It was an amazing quasi-memoir. I will look for these books, as well at Friends and Lovers. My mother and aunt would relate to that experience as it seems to mirror what they enjoyed and endured at Smith College in Mass. during the early 60s.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
