ED GORMAN, 1941-2016
Ed Gorman was one of the best writers of our time in any genre. His short stories could go arrow-swift into the heart of the human condition. Read "The Face" or "The Reason Why." He was spot-on in portraying middle America in the Fifties and Sixties. Read his Sam McCain novels. His knowledge of politics and it's dirty underside are -- if this is the word -- joyous. Read the Dev Conrad books. His compassion, enthusiasm, and friendship was important to many, many people. Read today's post on Bill Crider's Pop Culture Magazine.
