hi everybody,
it appears to me that mr. pelecanos is just now going
mainstream. back about a year ago when this list turned me on
to pelecanos for the first time, i couldn't find any of his
books in either barnes and noble or borders bookstore. i had
to order them online.
i'm pleased to report that saturday i found 3 pelecanos
titles at borders and i bought _right as rain_ at... are you
ready for this??..... WAL-MART!!! WAHOO!!! looks like he's
hit the big time.
i noticed that every other book listed as a "bestseller" was
a new york times bestseller. _right as rain_ was the only one
listed as a washington post bestseller. hahaha. personally, i
think he is headed for the new york times list.
