A review by careydnelson
The Crazy Kill by Chester Himes

3.0

Once again Coffin Ed and Gravedigger Jones deign to make an appearance for their own show. The detectives are cool; they have very large shiny guns! Clearly they care about their work, but you'd be forgiven for thinking of them as tertiary plot devices. I see now how these books are structured, but the glimpses of personal moments with the detectives left me wanting so much more of them.

Himes writes a fever dream like he's been there, and if I weren't so confused I would feel like I had been there too.
