As I mentioned recently, I've just started reading WOLF TIME. One
thing I've noticed right away is the classic noir economy of word use.
What I found particularly interesting is that Gores does this on at
least two levels simultaneously. First, at the level of individual
sentences, several of which are less than half a dozen words long, and
second at the scene level. Gores's transitions from scene to scene
with equal economy as he does from one sentence to the next. I didn't
find this to be as pronounced a pattern in his DKA novels. Since WOLF
TIME is my first foray into his stand alone work, is Gores's approach
to structuring his stories consistently different between his DKA books
and his stand alone material? If so, is this a direct function of the
recurring theme of revenge in his stand alone work?
Best,
Harry
