I laughed out loud the whole time I read Russo’s “Straight Man” and read (and reread) anything Atwood wants to write. Best wishes, —Jadi

Thanks for your visit and comment, Jadi! I loved “Straight Man.” (I read it in a book club.) And Atwood is utterly brilliant. I feel lucky I got a chance to hear her read…she wasn’t dynamic, but I was just happy to be in the presence of genius. 🙂

Frank Herbert spoke at the college I went to and was anything but dynamic. That was the evening I realized that some writers are NOT good speakers; but Dune is still one of the seminal books that I reread from time to time. I would love to hear Atwood in person, for exactly the reason you give. —Jadi

You’ve compiled a terrific list. How about Flaubert and F. Scott Fitzgerald?

I do like both of those authors. I am kind of a Francophile so I read Flaubert and De Maupassant as well. Also, I like Willa Cather a lot.
