I've been working my way through the Crumley PI novels and
found him to be one of the best most enjoyable authors
around. I'm about 40 pages from the end of THE MEXICAN TREE
DUCK (which I've found confusing but maybe it's because I'm
half-asleep when I"m reading it with my busy schedule) and
next on board is BOARDERSNAKES... but I'm wondering if he's
got plans for another novel out there... he's not much for
plots soetimes but he ranks up there with Chandler and James
Lee Burke in description...Can someone help me out?
Plus I"m starting a detective fiction course here at Rutgers
next week and I'm wondering if anyone knows anything about
Chester Himes If he Hollars Let HIM Go, and Marty Amis's
LONDON FIELDS... To be honest I'm not sure if either of these
are hard-boiled but I'd still like to know (don't worry
Chandler adn Cain are involved in the course too)... Thank
you...
