A real pleasure to be able to review books from terrific Detroit-area writers, with UofD High alum Elmore Leonard’s RUM PUNCH and Megan Abbott’s Grosse Pointe-set EL DORADO DRIVE in this month’s Irish Times column (behind a paywall):

My February column with @briancliff.bsky.social dropped today in The Irish Times. We review Sara Gran’s Little Mysteries, Michael Idov’s The Collaborators, Julia Dahl’s I Dreamed of Falling, Rachel Donohue’s The Glass House, and TC Parker’s Tradwife. Each one a stellar read. #crimefiction #mysteries

Dramatist, author, apostate newspaperman specializing in artisanal contempt and discerning maledicta. The claim that I am the angriest man in television is faint praise indeed; the second angriest is yelling at an agent because residual checks are late.
I make stuff. Currently Says Who and Rebel Spirit podcasts & writing at dansinker.com. Formerly Punk Planet (RIP), impeachment dot fyi, OpenNews, and much more. Always something new coming soon.
Book publicist in search of the perfect pun.
