    Going Native is great--it just has this plot conceit that can be difficult to figure out the first time you read it. The first chapter is amazing.

    no. Stephen Wright the writer. Try M31: A Family Romance or The Amalgamation Polka.

    I love your shelf..It's one of the most interesting I've come across so far. I noticed that you read "You cant win" by Jack Black. I really liked "Beggars of Life, a Hobo Autobiography" by Jim Tully (it's from the same series}. I also saw that you read "Dirty Havana Trilogy" Have you tried "Tropical Animal" from the same author?
