I Was Looking for a Street

by Burnside Genre Team, September 1, 2010 2:02 PM
The great memoir from masterful crime writer Charles Willeford is finally back in print! Get pulled along by Willeford's razor sharp wit and keen observation of his hard-luck childhood and teenage years during the Great Depression. Funny, dirty, and real. Read this, and then read the Hoke Moseley series, and then read whatever else you can find by this terrific American writer. You will be hooked.
