JANUARY 14, 2005:
After months of anticipation, here's the difinitive word of the upcoming Lost Stories:
"Lost Stories rescues 21 long-lost Hammett stories, all either never collected in an anthology or unavailable for decades. Stories range from the first fiction Hammett ever wrote to his last. For each story, Hammett researcher Vince Emery provides an explanation telling how Hammett痴 life shaped the story and how the story affected his life. In addition, all stories have been restored to their original versions, replacing often-wholesale cuttings with the original text for the first time. To round out this celebration of Hammett, three-time Edgar Award winner Joe Gores has written an introduction describing how Hammett influenced literature, movies, television, and Gores・own career."
