Cap'n Bill:
<<Just as a point of interest, I requote James Ellroy
from his recent appearance in Toronto: "Ross Macdonald wrote
ONNNNNNE BOOOOOOK, but from THE GALTON CASE on it was a
GOOOOODDD BOOOOOOOK." Hmm.>>
Macdonald's books, early or late, are ALL good. That's a
scientific fact. Now perceived hardboiledness (Palpable
Hardbolicity for Latin lovers) is a different matter.
It just occurred to me that we ONLY discuss good writers
here. From good all the way up to GREAT. This all caps
business is addictive.
