yes I have

>He hasn't checked the catalog for the other Gass threads.

Would rather read John Hawkes desu

>>8153426
He didn't save anything except his worst writing for last. The Tunnel is laugh out loud bad.

>>8153648
I'm reading it now. no its not.

>>8153503
Too bad like 65% of his books or more are out of print.

>>8153668
Amazon desu

>>8153716
Yeah, I actually already have most of them myself. I got the 6 or so that are still in print at a store, two online, and four others at a used book store. I'm only missing about 3 or 4 until I have his entire oeuvre, I think. Though I'd have to check somewhere to make sure.

>>8153503
That's a respectable choice--Hawkes is great, and has plenty of novels to read.

Your first statement is understandable, but your second makes me doubt you've actually read The Tunnel, because, of all things it is--strange, offensive, crass--it most certainly is not "laugh out loud bad."
