it's the Sherlock Holmes issue- you'll find an article I
wrote entitled The Life and Times of Edward Anderson, which
you might find informative. He was definitely an interesting,
if flawed and eventually un-balanced, individual. If you
can't find a copy of CT26, let me know and I'll try to give
you a quick rundown of Anderson's life.
*********** Thanks, Woody. Crime Time does have back issues
for sale. I have emailed them to ask if I can put a few
issues on my charge card. It would take forever for a check
to reach them and then clear. The magazine looks absolutely
stunning.
Your name sounded familiar so I searched it at Amazon and was
awed that you wrote the two pulp/noir critiques that I've had
my eye on for a while. I ordered them along with some
Latimer, Farrell, Faulkner, Manchette, Durrenmatt, etc.
The Amazon review said that you had interesting comments on
Leigh Brackett, Dorothy Hughes, and Dolores Hitchens. I just
finished Hughes's RIDE A PINK HORSE, and was fairly
impressed, and I've got novels by the other two sitting on
the shelf waiting on me. I'm interested to see what you have
to say about them.
I see you've got a new one, HEARTBREAK AND VINE, coming out
in early 2003. Congratulations. It seems like a lot of the
prominent early hardboiled/noir writers ended up
scriptwriting.
