Walker vs Hill


I recently came across two interesting articles that reviewed the following new writers. Rebecca Walker is the daughter of Alice Walker author of The Color Purple and Joe Hill is the son of Stephen King author of Carrie. Both books received great reviews and sound like they are worth checking out. They claim that Hill may even be a better writer than his father was at his age. Walker on the other hand has a bestseller under her belt with Black, White & Jewish: Autobiography of a Shifting Self. I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the literary tree.
