Swan Peak by James Lee Burke
photo by Robert ClarkJames Lee Burke is one of my favorite writers. Every summer I look forward to talking to him about his latest book. We have had a number on conversations, I think I have interviewed him 8 times so far?
For the last 4 summers we have connected on the telephone. He spends the summers up at his place in Montana. He doesn’t go out on book tours any more. Calling him up during July is one of my greatest pleasures. What conversations we have.
He has the most wonderful laugh. He is so real. And he is at the top of his game. Every new book is even better that the one that came before.
In July Jim will publish the newest Dave Robicheaux novel, SWAN PEAK (Simon&Schuster).
I’m reading it now.
