Oxbow Incident

Finished the oxbow incident last night in the tub.
I'd forgotten how hard-hitting it turns out to be.
Moving on now to Green Hills of Africa, which i didn't realize was a stab at absolute non-fiction by Hemingway. I expect it will read pretty much exactly like his ficton. Excepting The Old Man and the Sea of course. Why couldn't we have seen more of that hemingway ? It's such a wonderful soothing voice and i wish he'd developed it earlier.
