Thanks, Brian and Karin, for your comments on Toni Morrison. I think I'll pass on her for a while. I don't do well with the school of the obscure.

Right now I'm tag-teaming the two Dorothys... Baker's YOUNG MAN WITH A HORN and Hughes's RIDE THE PINK HORSE at work. They both are good. PINK HORSE is very hardboiled.
