They couldn't touch High Fidelity or About A Boy. Plus, of course, Slam is young adult fiction.

You know he recently wrote a novella that is part of a series to be used for adult literacy classes? So it doesn't write down to its audience but it may use words that are easier to sound out or whatever and it's shorter. Hornby's is about a porn star and his relationship to his mother, or something. Wide margins and only 85 pages.
