Then there's the ambivalence about homosexuals, harder on lesbians than gay males as I see it, which makes some passages of THE QUICK RED FOX and...PALE YELLOW FOR HER SHROUD, is it, the Mexican one?...somewhat hard to take. TM

-----Original Message----- From: Kevin Burton Smith [mailto: kvnsmith@thrillingdetective.com] Well, it's a nasty enough conclusion, but I don't know about gruesome. And I wonder, really, if part of its offensiveness is simply that women are the target of its fury. If you buy the premise, doesn't it really, in all honesty, apply as well to men?

Maybe it's not so much an indictment of women, but of the hedonistic lifestyle that McGee both championed and disdained.
