Vance is dictating an autobiography? Didn't know that, but I imagine that
would be fascinating - judging from a brief "autobiographical sketch" of
his, he's had a fascinating life. I'm going to have to start a Vance thread
here one of these days... I've been reading a good deal of his stuff lately
and I'm fishing for recommendations on his best work.

It seems to me Wolfe's books have had simpler prose styles these past few
years - perhaps this is Wolfe's "late style?" Then again, Castleview was
years and years ago and that was written in a less-than-ornate style too...
And while Wolfe may not write as fast as King, he's still happily prolific
(And much more re-readable).
