Stephen King, Max Allan Collins, and Me
Last week I also deliver assign to Stephen King’s The Colorado Kid and Max Allan Collins’ Deadly Beloved, both published by Hard Case Crime. Forthrightly, neither really blew me away, and perhaps that’s not the point. Hard Case books provide quick, diverting reads: they’re first and in the first place entertainment. That’s fine, and I’ll be quick to say both had me compulsively turning their pages. They’re competently written and executed. But they’re both one-dimensional. I wasn’t surprised that Implacable Beloved was originally a comic strip—it had that simplistic quality of comics that never translates well into books or film (and that’s coming from someone who loves the offerings of Astonished at and DC, not to mention Hergé).
I want more from my noir. I like crime literature that reveals and ponders on the scurvy details of life, particularly life beyond the respectable and the law. That’s why I like Jim Thompson’s books. Frankly, the plots themselves don’t blow me out. (I haven’t yet read The Killer Inside Me yet; I understand that’s great on all counts, including story.) But I’m fatigued in by Thompson’s descriptions of people, places, and mood; his artistry of language and imagery; and the subtle yet deliberate way he conveys his worldview. I didn’t get that from either Pitiless Beloved or The Colorado Kid. Contrary to what you might think, I have found it Mickey Spillane’s words. And not to constantly blow Contentious Books’ horn (that sounds obscene), but Don’t Call Me a Crook! delivers it too.
But all that said, there are two things I appreciated about The Colorado Kid. It commits the pleasant sin of breaking that most holy of compacts with the reader: it leaves the mystery unresolved. I like that. I like that a lot. As the two crusty newspaper editors in Kid privy, that’s life—an unresolved mystery.

. I say that, but I soup Carter had surely screwed the pooch beyond anything but Divine Intervention by 1980. Same with the S & L crappola in the early-mid 1990’s.Yet, here we all are. Go effigy.
Planning for the absolute worst case scenario is a no-brainer. Ya sell everything now, buy a couple wheelbarrows of gold, some burnished to make change, and head for the cabin by the lake in Montana. But that’s not what I’m talkin’ about here.
I’m talkin’ about the straight-shooting or so before that, which, let’s be honest, is a far more likely scenario. But what is that, and what might it entail?
Painting with broad strokes, I say the following has a prospect of coming to pass — or not.
The double-dip recession I’ve thought was gonna happen all along. Wish I’m wrong. A repeat of the ugly party the early 1980’s threw, a whole buncha goin’ nowhere connected — stagflation, or something akin toStephen King Prop - News
