Was looking through this old copy of Graham Greene’s THE HEART OF THE MATTER that I picked up years ago. I have another edition, and that’s the one I’ve read. Stumbled into this mystery. What’s the symbol? UPDATE: I’m an idiot. It just says “hi” sideways.

A starred review for A FRIEND IS A GIFT YOU GIVE YOURSELF from Publishers Weekly! (Link in bio.)

For our second SWR column, @kingfergus and I talk about a film we both love deeply, John Cassavetes’s LOVE STREAMS. Link in bio.

Nick Cave’s “hiding songs”

My Alan Rudolph kick continues. This one’s just pure joy. A screwball noir melodrama. Berenger doing Waits. Perkins seeming straight out of some lost ‘30s or ‘40s Hawks movie. Archer’s Miss Dolan like Dorothy Vallens Lite. Neil Young as the villain. Buffalo Bill as a bigamist. Ruby Dee stealing the scene she’s in. Warren Zevon and Leonard Cohen on the soundtrack. Double lives. Mistakes made, wrong paths followed. People watching people watching people. Everything I love most.

Just scored a new-to-me Himes.

I’ve got a new story in this anthology. It will be out on 2/19 in the US and 2/21 in the UK.

Library quarter-bin scores.
