    I am reading Martha Southgate's "Third Girl From the Left." She's a very talented writer. The book is about a young African American woman named Angela trying to make it into the Film industry during the 1970's. Angela's great hope and belief in people is heartbreaking to witness as she does what is necessary to survive as an extra in B films

    "American Salvage" by Bonnie Jo Campbell. It's a beautiful collection of stories chronicling the hardscrabble lives of Midwesterners plodding through their days. It's chockablock with tough love, poignancy, and quiet pain.
