T. C. Boyle's - Wild Child is out
He writes some incredible short stories. Anyone read this one? Unfortunately it's priced at $14.27 at both Amazon and Sony at the moment.

Give it a few days and it'll drop on both.

I was thinking about checking out "The Women" the other day. I wasn't really interested in it (especially after that bomb of a movie that came out a few years ago), but then I found out that it was about Frank Lloyd Wright's various ladies.

I recently watched the multi-part (American Masters ???) series on Frank Lloyd Wright and found the whole personality/family stuff totally fascinating. I may have to read that one myself.

Ooh that sounds good. I just recently read an article about it in Smithsonian which was very good.

I think you and I have similar tastes when it comes to literature and reading. I love his writings and collect them in First Edition. I'm only missing his first book to have a complete set of his work.

I found out about this one 2 days ago. It looks REALLY good!

I'll standby for a bit and see if the price drops, but may have to buy it anyway.

I'm with you on that, too.

(Psssst: Don't tell anyone, but if it doesn't drop, I'll still buy it.)

Yep: Still waiting....but not too much longer. I'm going to buy it shortly, probably within the next 2-3 weeks.

I'm right there with you Don, I'm hopeful that it will rise up the bestseller list this weekend and the price will fall.
