You’ll have to read this fast paced and fun crime fiction novel. It may me slightly unrealistic but it’s like an action movie with excellent dialogues. Westlake has a great sense of humor. A good summer read for the beach, waiting time in airports or long train journeys. With the ti...
What all this says to me is that Funaro seems to be more a journalist than a writer of fiction, and that his affiliation and ongoing interest is Indigenous. His articles – some of which are dated “three months ago” – seem to be mostly reviews, such as of theWolverinemovie, and of...
