The listings of the other volumes are confusing. In the front
of the book there are five volumes under the heading "Also in
the Akashic Noir Series:" DUBLIN NOIR, BROOKLYN NOIR edited
by Tim McLoughlin, BROOKLYN NOIR 2 edited by Tim McLoughlin,
CHICAGO NOIR edited by Neal Pollack, and SAN FRANCISCO NOIR,
edited by Peter Maravelis.
Under those there is a "Forthcoming" heading over these
titles: MANHATTAN NOIR edited by Lawrence Block, BALTIMORE
NOIR edited by Laura Lippman, TWIN CITIES NOIR edited by
Julie Schaper & Steven Horwitz, LOS ANGELES NOIR edited
by Denise Hamilton, LONDON NOIR edited by Cathi Unsworth,
MIAMI NOIR edited by Les Standiford, HAVANA NOIR edited by
Achy Obejas, LONE STAR NOIR edited by Edward Nawotka, and
WALL STREET NOIR edited by Peter Spiegelman.
In the back of the book are two pages hawking six books under
the heading "Also available from the Akashic Books Noir
Series." There follows blurbs, author lists and thumbnail
covers for both Brooklyn volumes, Chicago, San Francisco,
Dublin and Baltimore (which was listed as forthcoming in the
front of the book. Under the six there is a box saying "These
books are available at local bookstores. They can also be
purchased with a credit card online through
www.akashicbooks.com."
I went to the website and clicking through to DUBLIN NOIR
there is a notation "available early 2006."
Thanks for tipping me to the fact it won't be available for
several months as I would likely have ordered it. Now I'll
wait until its out or nearly out before sending in my money.
The Dublin book is subtitled "The Celtic Tiger vs. The Ugly
American."
