  • As Well As Bill Lampkin's the Pulp.Net at and Don't
    Pulp-related books and periodicals available from Mike Chomko for January 2015 Despite plans for a catalog in late October or some time in November, here I am at the beginning of 2015 with more excuses. Of late, everyday life has been interfering a great deal with my bookselling efforts. I’ve had no catalog for months and my shipping has pretty much ground to a halt. That said, I will be very busy shipping books over the next few weeks. As you’ll learn later in this catalog, a great deal of material arrived during the last couple of weeks of November and throughout December. Five more boxes were left on my front porch just after New Year’s Day. So there will be a lot to get out the door during the month of January. Most of my time during the last months of 2014—outside of a week spent helping my son and new daughter-in-law get ready for their wedding—has been spent on our remodeling work and working at the hospital. Most of our remodeling work is very much underway and I am hoping that I’ll be able to get back to a somewhat normal schedule in the months ahead. There is still a good bit of work to do, but the pressures of getting things ready for work to progress are diminishing. Thank you everyone for your patience with me and for your continued support. For those of you who purchase Girasol replicas from me, most if not all of this line will be ending in July 2015.

  • Ira Levin: an Appreciation by Robert S
    december Grand Master named by Ed Gorman No one has more succinctly defined the themes of Bill Pronzini’s work than Marilyn Stasio. In her review of Bill’s novel Blue Lonesome, she wrote: ”There is a sharp sense of place in this moody crime novel, which evokes even the inner landscape of the hero's mind… For all the spareness of its style, this is a rich study of alienated people and the big open spaces where they live.” While not all of Bill’s novels are set in the wide open spaces, all of them show the impact of environment on character. In Bill’s most famous novels, The Nameless Detective books, we see Nameless grow and change as his city of San Francisco grows and changes. I know of no other series where we see a man actually go through so many different phases in his life. Friends die, lovers fade, jobs change, his attitude about himself and the world evolve constantly. The Nameless of 1971’s The Snatch is a far different man than the Nameless of 2007’s Savages. Another remarkable aspect of the Nameless books is that they’ve stayed true to their original blue-collar origins. Nameless may delve into the worlds of the rich and prominent from time to time, but he remains a working class man not given to glitz or glamour. He speaks for people that much of American fiction seems to have lost interest in. But Bill’s career has not been limited to series fiction. In his suspense novels, from the extraordinary Snowbound to the recent masterwork The Crimes of Jordan Wise, Bill has demonstrated that suspense can be both entertaining and thought-provoking at the same time.
