September 2004: 75 years of THE MALTESE FALCON

  Dashiell Hammett's THE MALTESE FALCON was published in BLACK MASK in
  five installments from September 1929 to January 1930.

----------

Having a theme for a month, where people can read any book by a particular author or in a certain series or on a certain topic, is easier all around than the old book-of-the-month readings we'd do. It brings up a lot more discussion on the list and it doesn't tie everyone to a certain book that may be hard for them to find. I encourage everyone to read something related to the theme of the month and mention it on the list. All the regular RARA-AVIS talk goes on as well, of course.

This message is automatically sent out twice a month.
