RARA-AVIS: RE: Re Pelecanos quote

MRT writes about a backhanded pan of Pelecanos' best novel.

" Thank you for your hardboiled take on The Big Blowdown, Ned. It's good to see

For those who prefer the simple crime plot to the spreadout novel of growth--with crime (BB and Sweet Forever)--, I still recommend Shoedog to Suckerman...but either will do it.
