i just finished motherless brooklyn, and while i lack any
very insightful comments at the moment, i found it to be one
of the most entertaining, most inspired novels i've read in a
long, long time. and this is coming from someone who would be
very happy if every detective novel was set in 1940.

And see also Motherless Brooklyn. This one dives head into
the language of detective novels--language *period*,
actually--in a way that makes you think about maybe
hard-boiled went and got soft on us without changing one
word.
That's 2 cents, Neil Smith
