Books by Paul Theroux

1. Deep South , by Paul Theroux.  It’s OK enough, but Theroux’s best writing was motivated by bile and unfortunately he has matured.  Still, he can’t get past p.9 without mention Naipaul’s “rival book” A Turn in the South .  My favorite Theroux book is his Sir Vidia’s Shadow , a delicious story of human rivalry and one of my favorite non-fiction books period.
