************ All of your post was great, Donna. You have
definitely cranked through a lot of great noir/hardboiled
authors. I snipped down to your comment on Jason because I
remember a humorous moment that I really enjoyed in TOUGH
LUCK. Mickey Prada's father has been an asshole to everybody
all his life, especially to Mickey. When the old man dies,
the boy goes to the race track to spread his ashes. The wind
whips up and blows the ashes in Mickey's face. Haha! Even
death doesn't prevent the old man from being a pain in the
ass.
Mario mentioned the author winking at the reader. I'll second
that.
