I was going to pick this up too when I saw it on my
"recommended" list on Amazon.com. These books have been
discussed with enthusiasm on the list in past years.
There are some other notable reprints, both recent and
upcoming by some smaller presses such as Millipede which
include Falling Angel by William Hjortsberg, Nightfall and
Street of No Return by David Goodis, The Deadly Percheron by
John Franklin Bardin and The Auctioneer by Joan Samson, the
last of which I've never read but have been curious about.
Pegasus has recently reissued Cornell Woolrich's The Night
Has a Thousand Eyes and Manhattan Love Song and, later this
year, The Black Angel, which I read just recently and liked
quite a bit.
