1. Will somebody who either uses the word or owns an
American-English dictionary please tell me what a "gonif"
is/means?
(ref. first page, Chap. 3 of Campbell's IN LA-LA LAND WE
TRUST - just started it, looks promising).
2. Having (see above) recently made a small purchase of 2nd
hand paperbacks (and, incidentally, discovered I enjoy
Prather), I tried to read a Willeford - PICK-UP. Is anybody
able to suggest whether this book is more or less typical of
his output?
