Gun in Cheek: A Study of 'Alternative' Crime Fiction [Audiobook]

Gun in Cheek: A Study of 'Alternative' Crime Fiction [Audiobook] by Bill Pronzini
English | December 8, 2011 | ASIN: B006JNVJW0 | MP3@64 kbps | 8 hrs 11 mins | 225 MB
Narrator: Chet Williamson | Genre: Nonfiction/Literary Study

Love mystery? Then you'll love this book. Hate mystery? Then YOU'LL love this book. Pronzini is a fount of information about the "best" (read: hilariously inept) in mystery fiction. He's read every book ever written in the genre, it seems, and shows genuine affection for the form. The fun he pokes at the authors and their works is gentle and doesn't distract at all from your wonderment at the fact that these books ever even existed. It might, however, make you want to seek them out and try for yourself. Or maybe it'll help prevent a misstep in purchasing a book you wouldn't end up enjoying. Either way, this book is worth a listen (or three). These mystery authors have gone unsung for too long.
