Want: Down These Green Streets: Irish Crime Writing in the Twenty-First Century

June 6, 2011 — 4 Comments

As all Three Regular Readers will be aware, DOWN THESE GREEN STREETS is a collection of essays, interviews and short stories by Irish crime authors addressing the phenomenon that is the quality and quantity of Irish crime writing that has emerged in the past decade or so.

I like the cover. The book isn’t due out in the US it says until July 28th and the authors contributing include two of my favorite writers: Ken Bruen and Tana French. Plus a host of other writers I’d like to read. I want to read this! In digital format would have been nice but seeing that format is off the table now, I might just break down and order the paper. More details at Crime Always Pays. Update: ebook will be available in the near future according to Declan Burke via Twitter. I’ve put it on my wishlist until that day arrives.

  1. why is digital off the table? is it only coming out in paper?

  2. Aargh! I wish they’d release it digitally. But then I also wish Ken Bruen’s earlier books were available in e. I’m fussy. :D
