I love Jim Crace‘s writing so I snagged these two today while I was at the Printer‘s Row Lit Fest in Chicago. The hardcover is a really cool looking Franklin Library edition of two of James Cain‘s most famous novellas (so really two books for the price of one 🙃). I stayed under budget and stayed dry, too-the called for rain held off during my visit.
Lcsmcat I‘ve only ever read Quarantine by Crace, but loved it. I might have to look for these. 5y
AlaMich Was LitFest this weekend? 😧 I clearly wasn‘t paying attention! Did you see any authors? 5y
Lola @Lcsmcat I‘ll have to look for that one. I passed up a copy of Being Dead because I think I may actually own that one 🤔🙃😂 Edited to add: I just checked and I do indeed own![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)
Being Dead: A Novel (edited) 5y
Being Dead: A NovelLola @AlaMich Yes, it was. I didn‘t do any presentations/talks this year-just meandered around and checked out the bounty. 5y
