I've just finished reading A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole.
Has to be one of the funniest stories I have ever known. I was wondering
if anybody out there in email-land has ever read anything else written by
him, or, if anybody has any comments or comparisons betweem Salinger and
Toole. I know that he wrote another book before he killed himself (as all
the greats do), but at this point in time, I can not recall the title. I
do remember hearing that there was a film to be released. I don't think
that it was an adaptation of Ignatius, but none the less, if his other
book is not as intriguing and as brilliant, I may have to go underground.
