These will seem like strange bedfellows, but they all have traces in Crumley's work; whether he's read any of them or not.Fear Loathing in Las Vegas. Naked Lunch. Cryptonomicon /or Snow Crash. The Road (Kerouac, philistine - actually, strike that, McCarthy works here too - see "Blood Meridian", though). Up Jumped the Devil. Any book written by James Ellroy.If you enjoy gritty, perverse, darkly humorous, archetypal, depressingly-ruinous-but- somehow-cheerful writing in your fiction, this book will take all of an afternoon to finish. Upon completion, I immediately logged in and purchased every novel of Crumley's mentioning the anti-hero "Sughrue" in their descriptions.I'm sincerely hoping the other characters; particularly old-man "Trahearne" make additional appearances. I have always loved self-depreciation in a novel - a wink and nod to reader letting us know we are in on the joke.

There’s nothing here of stunning rarity, no five figure folios to knock your socks off (unless perhaps your socks were already pretty loose). Instead, with this catalog we offer much with which to fill gaps in your collection. The majority of the material is signed, and those books that aren’t signed are sufficiently difficult to find in collectable condition that they merit a mention in the list. We’re also doing our part to help the economy by studiously trying, book by book, to offer these at temptingly realistic prices. When they are cataloged, each book is checked against not only what price our last copy sold, but also against other copies which might currently be for sale. In our color catalogs you’ll some- times see the best copy in the world for a given book. This list is not so grandiose.

    Texas Institute of Letters January/February/March 2011 Newsletter _____________________________________________________________________________ th Special 75 Anniversary Issue _____________________________________________________________________________ Once Upon a Time in Dallas, When People Still Knew Latin The year 2011 marks the terquasquicentennial (or dodransbicentennial or dodrabicentennial or dequasbicentennial or septaquintaquinquecentennial or dosquicentennial or demisemiseptcentennial or quartoseptcentennial – well, just take your pick) of the birth of Texas. It also marks the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Texas Institute of Letters, which would be a dodranscentennial. Or dodracentennial. Or dequascentennial. Or semisesquicentennial. In any event, this year’s annual meeting in Dallas will have special events to mark the occasion. More news will be forthcoming. As a refresher: In the spring of 1935, Sigma Tau Delta, an honorary English fraternity, met on the Southwestern University campus in Georgetown. With the Texas Centennial occurring the next year, several scholars at the Georgetown meeting discussed the notion that Texas writers should be recognized as part of the Centennial celebration. As with most things pertaining to TIL, past and present, the concept was not without some controversy. But proponents outweighed naysayers, and the idea moved forward, with the concept of establishing an organization of Texas writers gaining traction. On November 9, 1936, TIL’s organizational meeting convened in the Hall of State on the Texas Centennial Exposition Grounds in Dallas; Governor James V. Allred also declared the week of November 9th as Texas Literature Week. With that meeting, the Texas Institute of Letters was born. (More on the history of TIL is available at: http://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/kqt01.) Three-quarters of a century of literary, scholarly, and publishing excellence has followed, most of it duly recognized (though, to be sure, there have been toe-stubs from time to time).
