Title: Gooid Book But Edition Needs Editing!!!!
Review: I was captivated by Ellroy's "noir" tone, and I liked "Brown's Requiem." My only complaint about the book involves the publisher's carelessness in editing. I was frequently distracted by typographical and grammatical errors that should have been fixed before the book went to press. Good fiction enables a reader to forget that he is reading and the mistakes in text were a frequent reminder of what went into making the book. The high price tags on even the most humble of paperbacks should more than pay for greater editorial attention.
