Sabroso!

by Rebecca Schoenkopf

But what does the L.A. Times have to say about our own Gary Phillips and this here site's editor, Nathan Walpow?

Taking place only a few miles south, but a world away, “Orange County Noir,” edited by Gary Phillips, explores lost dreams, hidden motives, shattered lives and the clash of race and class behind the “orange curtain,” a region undergoing radical changes that often belie its wealthy, conservative image.

Really, LA Times? The “Orange Curtain”? The copy desk's still letting that in, eh? In the words of my forefathers: Feh.

Still, it goes on to call Nathan's offering “tasty,” and it's a nice review for two of our favorite people. And if you're behind the Orange Curtain yourself, you can attend a party for said book this Saturday! Email jon@fourstory.org for info.
