Eudora Welty recommends
Pale Horse, Pale Rider (1939) Katherine Anne Porter "Most good stories are about the interior of our lives, but Katherine Anne Porter's stories take place there." | Concluding (1948) Henry Green "[A] novel of projections, protractions, long shots, and shadows flying ahead, a slow fall. . . . The sinister world of Concluding is . . . beautiful, side-lit and colored like an undersea kingdom." | The Transcendental Murder (1964) (Homer Kelly, book 1) Jane Langton "A delight!... The most enjoyable murder mystery of the year." | |
The Underground Man (1971) (Lew Archer, book 16) Ross MacDonald "A more serious and complex writer than Chandler and Hammett ever were." | Essential Stories (2005) V S Pritchett "He is one of the great pleasure-givers in our language." |
