NOTHING BUT THE NIGHT (John Williams, 1948)

February 08, 2025 by Tyler W. Weaver in 2025w06

Even early, lesser Williams like this Dostoyevsky-style debut is more interesting than most of what's published today. Recommended, but not as a Williams introduction (that honor goes to STONER).

Finished Williams’s AUGUSTUS: his place as one of my three favorite authors is secured (STONER, my favorite book, got him on to the list). A remarkable novel.
