Speaking of spoilers, Bunker's memoir, Education of a Felon,
mentions Willeford's name once and mispells it. Before
writing No Beast So Fierce, Bunker's first published novel,
he wrote a novel in the style of "Williford (sic) and
Thompson." This begs some questions:
No. 1. Shouldn't editors at St. Martin's Press know how to
spell Charles Willeford's name? Especially since it's the
autobiography of a crime writer.
Number two. Do Willeford and Jim Thompson have anything in
common as writers besides writing, at times, crime
fiction?
