I thought the beginning of High Graders and Comstock Lode were good. LL is so underrated by the critics. They go for these fools who write with R rated words and put in sex, or write about depressive types who spend their lives moaning. Their following remind me of "naughty children" sneaking a peek at the real thing, rarely if ever achieving what they were peeking at in the first place. They sort of stay at an immature level and observers at that! LL is a class act, and the older I get, the more I respect him. He was so intuitive and perceptive. And the critics have not figured out that LL is outlasting all the others. I am glad Reagan gave him those medals. And we all still love to read and buy his books, and talk to other people who do the same. |
