The Ed London stories were good, the other shorts got kind of repetitive ( ) Maybe three stars. Benefit of the doubt. Slightly above average noir pulp hack work by a young Block. Funny and brutal at the same time (if that makes any sense) and definitely not politically correct as far as rape is concerned. The Ed London stories are average "dame and drink" private dick stuff and a few of the individual stories strike a chord. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
In the era before he created moody private investigator Matthew Scudder, burglar Bernie Rhodenbarr, sleepless spy Evan Tanner, and the amiable hit man Keller--and years before his first Edgar Award--a young writer named Lawrence Block submitted a story titled "You Can't Lose" to Manhunt magazine. It was published, and the rest is history. One Night Stands and Lost Weekends is a sterling collection of short crime fiction and suspense novelettes penned between 1958 and 1962 by a budding young master and soon-to-be Grand Master--an essential slice of genre history, and more fun than a high-speed police chase following a bank job gone bad.
