Good Reads for Study

The following I am either currently reading or have read recently.

 Michael Cunningham's The Hours; Specimen Days, which are highly intuitive and well written

James Baldwin's Another Country; very deep with literal meaning

Edward Vega Yunque's Blood Fugues; quiet, personal exposition and brief development

Terry Pratchett's Going Postal; good humor and tight plot

Richard Price's Freedomland; great pace and visuals, lengthy and thorough, also a good movie

Antwone Fisher's Finding Fish; an intimate memoir, also a bestseller and movie

Ernest Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises; bold and assumptive, lot of white space, though you get the picture and idea from the 1st person POV

 I chose past tense 3rd person omniscient in my novel and much of it is passive, so I'm studying these books over to get the big picture.
