Newton Thornburg Novels

Newton Thornburg (5/13/29 - 5/09/11) was an American novelist. He is most well known for his 1976 novel Cutter and Bone which was later adapted to the screen for the movie "Cutter's Way" starring Jeff Bridges and John Heard. Although I haven't read all of his books yet, the ones I have read are excellent. Unfortunately some are out of print and have become hard to find. They are very much worth searching out if you like gritty fiction.
