New York : Penzler Publishers, 2023.
Format: Book
Description: 426 pages ; 21 cm.
"Of crime fiction's many sub-genres, none is so reflexive and so intriguing as the "bibliomystery": stories that involve crimes set, somehow, in the world of books. With fourteen tales of bibliophilic transgression from the Golden Age of the mystery genre(the decades between the two World Wars), this volume collects stories guaranteed to entertain, featuring work from well-remembered authors such as Cornell Woolrich and Anthony Boucher and from those that are lesser-known today, such as Carolyn Wells andJames Gould Cozzens"-- Provided by publisher.
Series: Otto Penzler's classic American mystery library.
