Talking Montreal Noir with Nigel Beale
Audio of my recent interview with Nigel Beale can be found here. Lots of talk about Brian Moore, Ted Allan, News Stand Library, Véhicule's Ricochet Books series and more!
Enjoyed that. It reminded me that there are two books I remembered reading about here that I still haven't purchased and that they are out there and very affordable. One new thing I learned: The correct pronunciation of Brian Moore's first name. Never knew it is supposed to be "bree-AN".
I had the pleasure of twice meeting Mr Moore to have books signed. A decade and a continent apart, both times he asked my name and both times I shuffled around. "It's, um, the same as yours... but, um, pronounced differently."
