Ah, but I speak Shakespearean, you see - I even have a
Master's degree in the language. Very noir - Othello
strangling Desdemona? Lots of serial killers everywhere. Very
hb - Titus Andronicus stabbing his daughter for getting
herself raped and serving up the 2 guys whodunit to their
father in a pie? Boston Teran has nothing on Will S.
Possibly more to the point, thanks for the Ellroy
suggestions.
