Re: RARA-AVIS: 5-Star Mystery collections...

Ron, the reason I asked about the Gores collection is because I just recently got it. I have only read two stories. I reread Second Coming, which I still think works, hipster language and all. I also read Watch For It, after hearing how good it was. Frankly, I was struck by the same problem you mention, the SDS/hippie/Weathermen, etc. language has not aged well. Which, I guess, means I'm more comfortable with beatnik cool than hippie cool, which shouldn't be too surprising an admission coming from an aging punk.
