Dear Sirs:
I'm mailing this from Yokohama, Japan. I like hard boiled
fictions.
Among others, I'm a fan of Hammett, Chandler, Spillane and
Parker.
We, in Japan, have heard quite little about Spillane these
days. In fact,
it's only 3 months before that I found he's still writing and
issued last
year Black Alley in which Mike Hammer is still fine. Amazing,
though we
have yet to have its Japanese version.
I'm interested in what he's doing now, where and how he is
living. I
wonder if he had written before and after Black Alley and how
Mike Hammer
has changed or not changed and if Velda is still with him.
I'd be
grateful if you could tell me some information about him of
recent days,
like the names of magizines and newspapers and the dates or
versions of
their publication.
Thank you, hoping to hear soon.
T. Moto
