You know I love the work of Ed McBain, especially the 87th Precinct. I wlove it in the smallest anecdotal details, which I was reminded again recently, when I saw this quote from Cop Hater, the very first novel of the series. I have nothing more to say, except that Detective Steve Carella is extremely wise.
Hahahahaha, now THAT is classic hard-boiled noir!
