>I agree with Kevin Smith that The Mexican Tree Duck by
James Crumley was=
not as tightly woven as his other books (by the way, he
wrote The Wrong =
Case, not The Wrong Kiss). BUT there's nothing pointless or
tiresome in B=
order Snakes (his latest novel). The roadtrips are part of a
flawless sen=
se of tempo and everything in that book makes sense
eventually. Maybe not=
as good as The Last Good Kiss, but very near the mark in my
opinion.=20

>Do you know that James Crumley has a good readership
here in France? All=
his books have been well translated and published by
Gallimard.
