I'm new to EW, thanks for the great site
Posted by Paul MacDougall on May 30, 2003, 10:33 pm I also like your nine books that should be made into film list. In a similar vein I always wondered why Minority Report by PK Dick wasn't made into a film. I guess it sometimes takes fifty years for a great story to hit the cellulod screen (digital processor these days). I plan to read some of the nine if I can find them. On another track, ten books that should be films from the crime and detective story bookshelf include The Burke Series by Andrew Vachss. I recommend readers that like tough gritty, 'vengence is mine' contemporary crime drama read Vachss. Start with the first one "Flood." I think the Nolan Brothers (Memento, Following, Insommnia) should tackle this movie. Enough said, I'm off the Amazon.ca to order the first two Whittemore's, they're on sale!!! thanks thanks for a new read

I hope you enjoy Whittemore's books. If so please consider making a contribution to the First Impressions page. The Harper's article is indeed a very fine piece. I do in fact have a reference to it on the NEWS page. Unfortunately I cannot reproduce the article on the site due to copyright reasons. It has served its purpose very well as it has brought new readers to this most neglected author. Anne --Previous Message--

Do keep us posted about your progression through the series: reflections, insights, criticisms and so forth. Hope you have fun! --Previous Message--

Posted by Anne on December 5, 2005, 7:57 pm, in reply to "Re: I'm new to EW, thanks for the great site" I meant to post earlier and Pat has put me to shame. So glad you find Whittemore your cup of tea. I will soon be putting up the 2006 Whittemore calendar for download, so keep in touch. Anne --Previous Message--
