With A New Introduction By The Author, Greenwich Killing Time Is Now Available For The First Time In More Than A Decade.This Is The First Of Kinky Friedman'S Mystery Novels. To Quote The Author: Greenwich Killing Time Was The First Book I Ever Wrote. I Wrote It In 1984 And It Was Published In 1986. I Was Doing A Lot Of Peruvian Marching Powder At The Time So I Don'T Remember Too Much About Writing It, But I Do Recall A Couple Of Things. I Borrowed The Title From My Friend Ted Mann. I Borrowed The Typewriter, An Old Smithcorona, From My Friend, The Future Village Irregular, Mike Mcgovern. Mike Graciously Loaned Me The Typewriter Claiming He'D Missed Many Important Deadlines With The Instrument. It Had, I Later Learned, Once Belonged To His Mother Before She'D Been Bugled To Jesus Years Earlier. I Took This As A Sign Of The Lord'S Hand At Work In The World. It Could'Ve Been, Of Course, Just Another Case Of A Jew Borrowing A Typewriter.Though Most Of The Books Have Been Set In New York (With The Exception Of Armadillos And Old Lace, Set In Texas, And The Soontobepublished Steppin' On A Rainbow, Set In Hawaii), Greenwich Killing Time Is The Only One That Was Written In New York. Some Critics Have Remarked, Not Unkindly, We Hope, That The Book Smells Like New York. If This Is True It Is No Doubt Because Of The Truly Visceral Voyage One Goes Through In Writing A First Novel. It'S Almost As If Your First Novel Writes You...
