The thing I love about the blog is how he says The Departed offers a more accurate version of the Bulger story. The Departed is a pretty straight adaptation of a Hong Kong movie, Infernal Affairs (with part of Infernal Affairs 2), not a "based on a true story" version of a Boston gangster.

> Paul Tremblay and I are going to be in NY Tuesday night at the Mysterious Bookshop from 6:30-8:00, with Paul reading from No Sleep Till Wonderland (terrific book--I read an advanced copy, and I think I commented here already about it) while I'll be reading from Pariah, maybe a bit from Killer. If people can show up, it will be great to meet you.

> Also, I stumbled on this the other day, thought it was kind of funny--a blogger in South Boston commenting/critiquing on Pariah not from reading it but from thoughts about what it might be about after reading a Boston Globe review for it.
