Pithy? That’s quite a compliment.

For crime fiction noir  Irish   More than I imagined

Who’s this?

Bruen  Ken Bruen

                     Not only pithy but apercu liberally scattered throughout

What?

Apercu

You said, I asked what? A learning moment would ya?

I apologisedidnt mean to assume   Youre well read

Thank you, but you tend to hammer down are more granular than I am, or more so than my attention is willing to withstand.

Thas a curious  willin to withstand

It’s the truth.

                  Apercu.

Enunciated well

Means comments brief references  Making illuminating entertaining points

                                                                                An reading its occurred to me many of his references are factual not madeup not fiction Unique in crime writing to my experiencealbeit  my limited experience

But you read fiction, as you’ve said, like candy, to treat to yourself.

Yes I love my nonfiction the science physics history politics psychology philosophy

                                                                                        But then I need to change it up

How many books in ten are fiction?

They tend to be scifi though recently crime  Bruens draggin me back in  When I was younger I read Chandler Hammet Himes Highsmith McCoy Cain Fearing recent Mosley Ellroy Winslow caught his eyes wandering not granular I coud go on
