Jordan,
Due to the fact that THE BIG BOOK OF NOIR was published in
1998 and that quite a few Avians were contributers, the book
content was discussed in deep at the time. My own piece, "S鲩e
Noire", was part of book as well.
Glad to hear you enjoyed TBBN and that it helped you to find
your way in the noir jungle.
