Oddly enough, that's what shocked me too. It bothered me to not realize that he was alive all this time.
I've only read a couple of his short novels. He's not what I consider to be a pleasurable read. Not a happy-go-lucky kind of guy. But he's one of those authors who feel like you should read because of who he is and what he experienced. But I was raised by a father who read Tolstoy and Solzhenitsyn while he tended a paper machine in a mill.
