Don Delillo

Hours after this tweet, I recognized its influence was a slight comic bit of DeLillo's White Noise.

The Good Soldier

Ford Madox Ford
a.a.

@JoyceCarolOates If Ford is Ford Madox Ford, then it seems worth noting that The Good Soldier is as strong as anything Hemingway wrote, and it has one of the greatest opening sentences.

Masaji Ishikawa
a.a.

Only by coincidence, I was reading A River in Darkness: One Man's Escape from North Korea by Masaji Ishikawa when I saw the Boston Globe article. https://t.co/QqEzGOwEyW An American who served at the Korean DMZ during the Vietnam War era appreciated the Globe article very much. https://t.co/6l4SiV1Wk1

Them

Joyce Carol Oates
a.a.

@ambernoelle This is cute (and somewhat relevant)--Joyce Carol Oates around minute 34 1/2 starts listing American writers who thought feminists were out to get them--Bellow, Mailer, Roth get a mention . . . https://t.co/LERU8y1Hya
