Lee Olds' two short novels are both excellent reading."The Bilge" is a story about a nasty power play in a ménage à trois in contemporary California, while "Clara" is gentler but no less psychologically penetrating.I highly recommend this surprising and eye-opening author. He was a runaway best seller in the 1960s ("Too Much Sun" received widespread critical acclaim) and his contemporary work is just as powerful and compelling.
