Last year I wrote a short biographical essay on Howard
Browne, with a special focus on the Italian edition of THIN
AIR, the only Browne novel ever translated in my native
language, in 1966.
(By the way, if any of you can read Italian, my short piece
is here: http://digilander.iol.it/gialloweb/
, in the "recensioni" and then "libri" sections.)
In that article I spoke also of a couple of books which had
been translated in Italian in the mid-fifties, and whose
authors I have almost no info about. They are: SPIN THE GLASS
WEB (1952), by Max Ehrlich (who later wrote THE REINCARNATION
OF PETER PROUD, as far as I know), and NOW, WILL YOU TRY FOR
MURDER by Harry Olesker. Olesker, in particular, is a total
unknown to me. I only know of another novel of his, EXIT
DYING, dating from the late Fifties.
Any info?
Later, Luca
