Not unknown, but no one talks about him. The Enigma of Arrival is wonderful

So, by unknown, OP probably means unknown in 'murica

Myself.

The author of OP's diary desu

Gabriel Scott - on par with (late) Hamsun desu. But he didn't win the noble prize and he stopped being a nazi too early, so no one cares about him nowadays.

H. Paul Honsinger His novels are pulpy, the characters are mary janes, and he writers genre fiction, but it's good stuff that pulls me out of my humdrum day and makes me feel a little better at the end.

Thomas Pynchon

Good post.

Late period Hamsun has probably my favourite literary output by anyone ever. How would you say Scott compares to him, besides being Norge and a Nazi? Also, best book to start with him?

Underrated.

Michael Longely.
