RARA-AVIS: King Suckerman

From: abc@wt.net
Date: 01 Feb 2000


I think KING SUCKERMAN is this month's book, and I was reminded of it by the discussion of brand names in someone's posting. I don't think I've ever seen so many brand names, band names, and song titles in a single book. I know Pelecanos was trying to convey a time and a place, but I got a little tired of the "he turned up the V on the big {brand name) stereo" sentences.
