An idle search on "David Goodis" led me here and the hope of getting 
(and maybe giving) good recommendations of authors not yet discovered 
led me to subscribe.  Re someone's post about (I believe the book is 
called) "Hardboiled America," I would say, yes, William "Lee" 
Burroughs's Junkie qualifies as hardboiled, if not on its subject 
matter, then at least on its beautifully pure and simple prose style.  
Is there anyone else out there who admires Dan J. Marlowe's "The Name of 
the Game is Death"?

Looking forward to hearing from you all.
