Did a search for Richard Russo, hoping to find similiar authors..
I read Empire Falls at the start of summer break, and now plan on reading all of his novels this summer. So far I have read three, and enjoyed them all thoroughly.
So far I've read Empire Falls. Nobody's Fool, and I just finished Straight Man. Next I plan on reading Mohawk, and then see what else he has written.
After reading all of his novels, I will be looking for another contemporary "literative" author to pursue, and would welcome suggestions by any that have any.
Neil Gaiman is a great writer. I've read all of his books as well, minus Good Omens which I just couldn't get into. Neverwhere is my favorite Neil Gaiman novel.
