Because 18 Lew Archer novels isn’t enough, I just bought “the complete short stories…”
My buddy, writer MS Harker, and are reading all the Lew Archer books this summer.
ps. Watch for Harker’s *Don’t Shoot the Piano Tuner* (forthcoming, watch for it at http://dontshootthepianotuner.com )

#Quotes #Books #Insulate #RossMacdonald
A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
The walls of books around me, dense with the past, formed a kind of insulation against the present world and its disasters. -Ross Macdonald, novelist (13 Dec 1915-1983) -

Latest read, The Moving Target (1949) by Ross Macdonald; the first Lew Archer novel and the basis of Harper (with Paul Newman).
A re-read (it's been 35 years), Archer investigates the kidnapping of a LA millionaire. This must have felt ahead of its time. I'm surprised it was written in '49.

In January's newsletter, I recommended Janet Malcolm's IN THE FREUD ARCHIVES, Dwyer Murphy's AN HONEST LIVING, and Ross Macdonald's THREE NOVELS OF THE EARLY 1960S. Archives, book mysteries, murder!
