Students and friends of mine who love Bukowski also love Denis Johnson. His stories in Jesus' Son are great. And check out his novels, especially Already Dead and Nobody Move.

Can I read a Nookbook on Sony reader?

I'm new to all this. The book I'm most eager to read is only available from Nook. Is there a way I can buy it from B&N and read it on my Sony 950? :thanks:

Sonics99: That's odd. The stated exterior dimensions of the 900 and the 950 are identical: 7.87" X 5.04" X .38". The 950 only differs in weight; it's slightly lighter.
