Though with Heartbreak and Vine I have to admit I
was given a fact checker who was pretty good, though perhaps
not good enough.
Well that'll be me, I suppose (though I generally
prefer the term 'editor' to 'fact checker'). And mea too
culpa, I guess. Like Woody I prefer to avoid errors but I am
a lot more interested in the wider truths about the social
and political worlds in which noir writers operated that
emerge from Woody's books, than I am bothered about nailing
down David Goodis alternate titles. While not denying the
desirability of bibilographical exactitude, I think there is
a wood for the trees issue here.
