Pulp Fiction discussion

I've been looking for a group to discuss my new favorite. For a few months now I've only been able to discuss it with my wife. We're both still searching for answers. The book is in our heads and won't leave. It's not your typical noir but it has a definite noir feel to it.

I can't say enough about it just that it's a solid, quick read that requires to be read several times and discussed thoroughly. It's book club material.

I just finished this book as well, and I'm definitely searching for answers. I'm thinking that I may need re-read this book because there is so much symbolism taking place. Please let me know when this group gets started.

Great. I see that you left a 5-star for it too. The part that has stuck with me is when Douglas talks about falling from the tree. I've read the book about four/five times now and find something new each time. The tree part is something I haven't grasped yet, and I'll admit I cried at it once. It's so sad.

Here's what I thought was interesting that I just noticed in my last read: The guy selling the parrot shows up twice in the book saying "A nickel for the troubles." At the beginning, Douglas paid with a dime as though he were paying for the second occurrence in advance. This book blows my mind with how everything is not neat and tidy, but it is. I think I'm close to figuring out what the nickel is all about but not quite there. Did you? I have so many questions and am excited that you might have some answers.

Dave Newell and I just released the audiobook of Red Lory. With his help--and his insight into what was going on--this edition may actually clear some things up for you. I agree it's a great book for a book club, and of course I'm extremely excited to see the film that's Dave's working on as well!

Yes Dave has been a great help to me. I'm a member of his Red Lory group and it has helped me understand the book more. I'm quite excited that he got a book deal. I think it's well deserved.

Dave is also working on a sequel to Red Lory...! Using some of the same characters, but in another small town not too far from Hill.
