JFDI BOOK NOS. 10 & 11:SISTERS BROTHERS AND HARVEST

Chosen by Tom Wells



1. The Sisters Brothers  
     by Patrick deWitt. 
 
A bit of a palate cleanser.  It's the novel Quentin Tarantino would write.  And therefore it's right up Conor's dusty trail.  Conor?  Yes, this is peer pressure.  





2. Harvest by Jim Crace. 


A Booker finalist this year. It's as English as The Sister Brothers is American.  Even if TSB was written by a guy born in Canada.

Read them both and compare/contrast. 

The next meeting will be in March 2014, so there is plenty of time.
