| | 1. |  | Legends of the Fall
from Delta
Price: $10.20
Customer Review:
The three novellas by Jim Harrison collected in Legends of the Fall took my breath away when I read them, and made me wonder why in the world it took so long for me to discover Harrison. His language is sparse and clean--reminiscent to a certain extent of Cormac McCarthy's--but it has a... more info

| | 2. |  | Returning to Earth
from Blackstone Audio Inc.
Price: $19.71
Customer Review:
Thank goodness I got my book from the library and it didn't cost me any money. I got interested in reading the book because I discovered that Harrison and I went to rival high schools, at about the same time. It was nostalgic for me to read about towns and culture that very few others know of. My... more info

| | 3. | [no image] | Julip
from Washington Square Press
Customer Review:
I've read the first 2 in this collection (Julip & The Seven Ounce Man) and I have to say that Harrison is quickly becoming one of my favorite American authors. His language is witty, but diverse. He can describe the heck out of a patch of woods using concision only guys like Fitzgerald could... more info

from Houghton Mifflin
Price: $54.75
Customer Review:
Prolific novelist (Legends of the Fall), screenwriter, poet (The Theory and Practice of Rivers), and short story writer, Jim Harrison embeds people in landscape and weaves through torque of narrative, prose, and emotional import a web of intricate and compelling design. The Woman Lit by Fireflies,... more info

| | 5. |  | Farmer
from Delta
Price: $13.50
Customer Review:
Jim Harrison is a fine writer, I found this a bit hard to get through. It didn't pique my interest. It could have been when I read it, but it just didn't do it for me.

| | 7. |  | True North
from Grove Press
Price: $11.20
Customer Review:
I have just finished the book - perhaps 2 months. Kept hoping for some redeeming quality, but it never came. I thoroughly agree with Gary Mack, but cannot see why he gives it 4 stars. Carla was the best character in the story.

| | 8. |  | A Good Day to Die
from Delta
Price: $13.50
Customer Review:
This is Jim Harrison's second novel, and a big improvement over his first (WOLF). The narrator, a drifter still married after six years but no longer living with his wife, encounters Tim (a Vietnam vet with a mean streak and strung out on drugs and booze most of the time) and his girlfriend Sylvia.... more info

from Penguin Classics
Price: $11.90
Customer Review:
This is such a heart-aching book. It's gorgeous and simple and so sad. I read it for a course at University and am so glad to have encountered this treasure. I've marked the hell out of its few pages. My professor highly encouraged us to write all over our books, as a way of CLAIMING the books and... more info

from Mariner Books
Price: $10.20
Customer Review:
These reviews must be to hard for the authors to read. The only easy ones would the indifferent reviews since the negative ones are upsetting and the great ones are embarrassing. This review is the latter. Being Fifty it's hard to have any heroes these days, especially living heroes but, Jim... more info
