    I am a Long Beach reference librarian who is indebted to Blog-o-verio
    for introducing me to the literary wonderland of DAWN POWELL.

    Uninsultingly, he called her a "creep" for her amazing ability
    to creep into the psyche of her characters in a deeper, darker,
    and humorous depth much more than classic
    American authors such as Philip Roth, Saul Bellow
    and Flannery O'Conner.

      And I am eternally grateful simply for the existence
      of the Long Beach Public Library
