So. you're NOT a Chandler fan? Not since about 1970. One novellist I've never read is A. S. Byatt who was on the Diane Rehm Show this morning. She's hot because she's short-listed for a second Booker. I've had _The Biographer's Tale_ sitting on the shelf for a couple of years. She's on my short list as soon as I finish two biographies of that exciting man, Dwight David Eisenhower. One is _Ike: An American Hero_ by Michael Korda which concentrates mainly on his role in the Second World War and gives only scanty coverage to his two terms as prez; the other is the single volume abridgement of Stephen Ambroses two-volume _Eisenhower: Soldier and President_, which whizzes through WWII and all that. (I'm reading Korda first, and cross checking occasionally with Ambrose.) Meanwhile, I'm off to San Francisco.
