L'amour was quite prolific.
He wrote more than 100 books.
How do you feel about his books now? (having lived in North America)
Any change at all?
At one time I think I had read all their works combined, up to that time. I find those books boring now. The plots are all the same, the characters are all the same, the themes are all the same. The last 10 to 15 years I've become a big fan of interpretive literature, short stories and the classics.
WRT - the last paragraph - I am with you here.
I guess we change with time. A read a lot of more "serious" books now and quite a bit on non fiction.
Will start another thread on this.
