Books Update: Re-Working Our Crime, Spies & Sleaze Category (with new additions): Joan Ellis at Midwood, the Home of Sleaze
*Crime, Spies & Sleaze: We’re continuing to introduce the new layout for our books categories, with an image for each book. This week, we return to our Crime, Spies & Sleaze Category, with the emphasis on the sleazy part this time out. The US publisher Midwood was known for a particular type of output, and none of its writers more so than the Queen Of Sleaze, Joan Ellis. In the four volumes offered here, she delves between such subjects as co-ed sin, street gangs, lesbianism and race. Stylish covers mostly from the excellent Paul Rader convey the stories succinctly. Midwood Books now command premium prices, but we’ve tried to keep them reasonable!
