Posted on by

A couple of days ago the news that John Banville is writing a new Philip Marlowe story broke. I’m cautiously optimistic about the news if I’m honest and wrote a short blog for the Guardian about why. You can read the post here.

UPDATE:

If you want to read a quite different opinion, Malcolm Jones has written a piece on why it’s a very bad idea for the Daily Beast. You’ll find it here.
