Should I buy The Public Burning or Middle C?

>> No.12683802

I havent read either but nothing about Gass' writings sounds interesting in any capacity but I have coovers book in my next order of shit

>> No.12683834

Coover seems like the less stuffy writer. Gass strikes me as overly technically minded in the same way that Barth is.
