Oh, damn! #LibraryOfAmerica is adding to their crime novel collections by going to the ‘60s with two volumes. And they’ve chose photorealist painters Don Eddy and Richard Estes for the covers (the ‘40s and ‘50s volumes had Edward Hopper and George Ault, respectively).

WHAT? Library of America has a boxed set of Women Crime Writers from the '40s and '50s?
'Course, I may have to pull a heist to afford it.

Fall 2023 is a particularly good season for the Library of America: Faulkner's short stories, Adrienne Kennedy's plays, 2 more volumes of crime novels, an anthology titled "Black Writers of the Founding Era", and perhaps most exciting for me: JOANNA RUSS novels and stories.

I'm so excited about this news from Library of America:
"For Fall 2023, we’re thrilled to announce JOANNA RUSS: NOVELS & STORIES, collecting the multidimensional works of a speculative fiction luminary. The volume restores her complete Alyx stories to print, and includes her 1975 classic, The Female Man."
