I found this on a blog; it is old, but I wondered if this
fits the criteria. Anybody know the book?
[09.19.05: Putnam editor Dan Conaway posted an interesting
comment over the weekend. I'm moving it into the main post,
because I'd love for editors, authors or agents reading the
blog to do likewise if there's something they feel is missing
from one of these posts. Not to mention that DOPE sounds like
the kind of book our mystery columnist would love . . .
"NOT MANY SURPRISES?! I'm the editor, at Putnam, of one book
on the Winter
'06 list that will (I predict) prove to be a wonderful
surprise: Sara Gran's stunning genre-busting novel DOPE, set
in New York City circa 1950. Imagine if Elmore Leonard had
edited MOTHERLESS BROOKLYN... or if Raymond Chandler had been
reincarnated as a 21st century woman."]
Best to all
