Review: In Double Exposure the author achieves what Hemingway aimed for

Double Exposure is brilliant.  Lister uses language sparely, carefully to recreate the experience of a photographer who goes into the woods, makes a discovery, then tries to make his way back out. Unlike Hemingway, whose novels now seem full of artifice rather than a spare use of language, Lister really captures the experience of the photographer as he makes his escape.  There is such realism in this book that sometimes I found myself breathing shallowly as the photographer was close to danger. I won't write a spoiler but suggest you read Michael Connelly's introduction.As for the other two novels in this boxed set, they're not for me, so I won't even review them.
