Reginald Hill. Recalled to Life (1992)
This one is on a par with DeadHeads and Arms and the Women, a complex and remarkably solid mystery novel about class and the difference in America and England (sometimes none). Dalziel goes to New York City and Williamsburg! There is an excellent chapter (send up?) on mystery writing, esp. the Golden Age, and other interludes, or "incidental pleasures" which make this book really fun, despite the darkness permeating it.

Hello, I discovered your site while doing some research on Francis Ponge. The comments are interesting, especially that one by Sartre. I've linked to you from my site. I hope that's okay.
By the way, did you know you can turn on 'word recognition' in the blogger preferences in order to avoid getting annoying automated 'advertiser' comments?
