That's another one I have sitting by the bedside, waiting to be read. Shook hands with Ellroy at a book conference in mid-09. He seemed genuinely bananas. Thanks, Tim.

Completing Ellroy's Underworld USA trilogy, it was a massive slab of hypnotic crime fiction, and was the best book I read on 2009.

I really like the Mars Volta/Hella supergroup El Grupo Nuevo de Omar Rodriguez Lopez. Reminds me of, well, aside from a cross between those two bands, obviously, maybe High Time-era Rob Tyner fronting the Magic Band.

What to do with all that info? I think the only thing on the list that I've encountered is 2666 by Roberto Bolano which I started reading a few days ago. It has worked its way into my consciousness pretty thoroughly. Meantime guess I'll have to add a few things to my already seemingly infinite list of things to read, watch, or otherwise assimilate.
