Damn, Akashic
A second volume of Brooklyn Noir? I still need to check out the first... Though I am somewhat confused about the "masters of yore" tag applied to Colson Whitehead and Jonathan Lethem. Amazing writers? No question -- hell, if nothing else, the promise of short fiction from both of them will get me to fork over $16. But..."yore"? Huh. Lovecraft and Westlake, sure...
But it's late, and I'm easily baffled at this hour.
(Disclaimer: At one point, back in the days of my first blog in 2000/2001, Brooklyn Noir editor Tim McLoughlin was a reader thereof. There was something kind of amazing about being able to write about having just read or listened to something and subsequently being emailed by its author or maker; that may very well have been one of the factors that's kept me blogging in one form or another for nearly -- (glances at calendar) -- five years.)
