Music has been a strong creative influence in Willy Vlautin's life. He's a singer songer-writer in the alternative-country music band Richmond Fontaine. It was music that made him start writing fiction and he's written three novels: Motel Life, Northline and Lean on Pete.
For Off the Shelf though, Willy Vlautin tells what books have shaped him:
Ironweed by William Kennedy
The Death of Jim Loney by James Welch
Cannery Row by John Steinbeck
Pick-up by Charles Willeford
Where I'm Calling From by Raymond Carver
Get it
