About Brevet Captain

Untitled
I am a reader and writer who appreciates the comedy and decency of dogs, the subtleties of whiskey, and the pure beauty of a pulling guard in the open field.

Writers whose works I love: Neal Stephenson, Thomas Pynchon, Neil Gaiman, Margaret Atwood, Herman Melville, Ishmael Reed, Leo Tolstoy, Franz Kafka, Feodor Dostoevsky, Anton Chekhov, Emily Dickinson, Walt Whitman, and James Joyce.

hammerito: “This is water, this is water.” Happy 50th, Dave. Greatest American Writer born since WW2; Neal Stephenson is more accessible, but in no way the prose stylist Foster was. Happy Birthday and be at peace, Dave.
