Title: James Crumley, an Acquired Taste
Review: As a wise reviewer has observed, one does not read Crumley for his plots. On the other hand, his language and insight into our deepest angst trumps any failings with the plot (which in The Last Good Kiss, surely stymied this intrepid reader!). His sense of place, musings on why we do what we do are marvelous and, importantly, when is the last time you laughed out loud many times during a reading!! Tom Knight
