The Sisters Brothers Patrick deWitt
Entertaining western about the infamous brothers, Charlie and Eli Sisters, hired killers who travel from Oregon to San Francisco to kill Herman Warm. Nicely written in Eli’s voice, odd characters, and dusty tangents. Kind of good.
Train Dreams Denis Johnson
The early 20th-century life of Robert Grainier told in a beautiful novella. While he constructs railroads and clears their paths, he is unable to construct a life connected to others. Poignant, sad, and evocative. Crystal clear prose. Really enjoyed it.
