I tried to read _Laguna Heat_ when it came out, but it didn't
hold my interest. It was turned into a pretty effective movie
(HBO?). But I did read and really enjoyed _Silent Joe_,
although with the talk of how Parker may have ripped-off _The
Poet_ to some extent, it reminded me that _Joe_ had an awful
lot in common with Jonathan Lethem's
_Motherless Brooklyn_, and he even thanks Lethem for the
inspiration.
George Pelecanos' _Hell to Pay_ just showed up in today's
mail--I know what I'll be reading tonight!
