THIS MONTH we’ve been reading HOLLYWOOD STATION by Joseph Wambaugh (superb streetcop policing, like the 85th Precinct series crossed with NYPD Blue); UNDER THE BRIGHT LIGHTS by Daniel Woodrell (deeply gritty Louisiana noir); SIX STRINGS by FW of this parish (editing and proofing and nearly ready for publicatio­n!) Also THE AUTOMOBILE CLUB OF EGYPT by Alaa Al Aswani (utterly brilliant tale of the club and of British rule in that awesome country), and FAMILY HONOR by Robert B Parker (excellent and short PI procedural set in Boston)

MEANWHILE AT THE MOVIES… we finished the DEAD OR ALIVE trilogy of seriously strange Japanese shockers; adored Frances McD in THREE BILLBOARDS; think Ridley seriously lost the plot with ALL THE MONEY IN THE WORLD, and Frank flat-out hated MOLLY’S GAME. But DEVIL’S ADVOCATE with Kenau and Pacino was a romp!
