Phillip Routh, whose blog, How Jack London Changed My Life, chronicles his prolific and eclectic reading, contacted me recently with a couple of recommendations–Gontran de Poncin’s memoir, Father Sets the Pace
A few days later, he posted a list of ten titles with his comments, along with additional recommendations for most of the writers. “I had difficulty in selecting ten books, because so many were jostling for inclusion,” he wrote. I’ve just uploaded it to the site: you can read it now: Recommendations from Phillip Routh.
Thanks for your contributions, Phillip!
Yes, an incredible reader is Mr. Routh as well as a very good writer. His tastes have often shaped my readings as I discovered some prize never imagined, probably would never have been discovered without his assistance. His pages on the Blogspot are wonderful readings on their own. Glad to see him celebrated here.
