B/c there are people with a great novel and then some average to pretty bad ones = Franzen, Denis Johnson, Colson Whitehead, Jeanette Winterson. There is Junot Diaz with his one great book. There are also people that I think have a good book in them like David Means. But the only two writers that I can say I think are consistently good are DeLillo and James Salter.
