Am I the only one who doesn't think its as much fun to read
Chandler and Hammett in the very august packaging of the LOA?
Same is true for the works included in the Polito-edited noir
volumes. Much as I appreciate their inclusion in the LOA as
validation of these works as literature worthy of the best
the U.S. has to offer, I think there's an aesthetic
disconnect in reading these works in that format.
Just my $0.02.
