I write horror and crime fiction, live in Brooklyn and love cooking and martial arts. My wife is the actress Linda Jones and our dog is half pit, half Dutch shepherd and all clown. Though I may wince, you really can choose any pizza toppings you like.

~ Thirty More Novels for #Noirvember ~
Day 29: ODDS AGAINST TOMORROW (1957)
McGivern’s titles are familiar to movie buffs, but his books deserve more readers. This racially conscious heist novel is even better than its classic film adaptation, richer in character and anecdote.

I know a lot of footage and commentary is swirling about today but it’s important to convey that the people who gathered outside that ICE garage in lower Manhattan were *so* ten toes down focused.
This person who gets maced and just calmly flips the bird & keeps going is *quintessential.*

I trashed James Thurber in a previous post, so now it's time to say something nice about another writer. If you've ever enjoyed Ray Bradbury, you need to read this beautiful story about when he met the real Mr. Electro.
