If you lived through the 1970s, but were too young to remember much of it-- aside from the absurd commercials and network TV-- then this episode of We Defy Augury should be helpful and entertaining-- I take a look at how four crime novels characterize the zeitgeist of the 1970s (and I also take a few trips into the fuzzy abyss of my own memories of my first decade existing on this planet).

Sixty-seven minutes is either two minutes too few or twenty minutes too long. But I will listen eventually. I started reading Crook Manifesto, is it involved in this podcast?
absolutely-- it's in there-- but this one is a little different in terms of how deep i get into each book-- more about how the books portray the 70s than the books themselves . . .
