Book review - "Backstory 4" Ed Patrick McGilligan

Another brilliant instalment of this excellent series, covering writers who excelled in the 70s and 80s. Unlike the previous editions, all of the writers are still working. It includes several of my favourites: John Milius, Walter Hill, Larry Cohen. Full of surprises - Alvin Sargeant's insecurity, Donald Westlake's extensive career. Endlessly fascinating.
