Fiction. WRITE LETTER TO BILLY is a delectably complicated maze that kept me spellbound from start to finish. Only the most sophisticated of writers could manage to combine the seriousness of a quest for identity and meaning with the intensity of a thriller, not to mention an excursion into deep-sea diving and the resort life of southern California --Lynne Sharon Schwartz. Winner of the PEN/Faulkner Award for his novel SEAVIEW, Olson has published eight books of fiction and twenty-two books of poetry.
