My May (!?!) American Eye column (admittedly not filed until the first week of June!) is finally up at Shots--you can find it here. It marked my introduction to John Shannon, but since it's gone up I've learned that at least two of the Jack Liffey series, The Orange Curtain and Streets On Fire were in fact published in Britain, by Orion, so how they slipped under my radar I've no idea. It does mean he should be slightly easier for you to find in this country. But uncovering such work is what the American Eye column was intended to do! My thanks to Michele Slung for pointing me in Shannon's direction. Tuesday 4 August 2009
JOHN SHANNON: THE NEW AMERICAN EYE COLUMN AT SHOTS
My May (!?!) American Eye column (admittedly not filed until the first week of June!) is finally up at Shots--you can find it here.
