I love the mission of the British Library Crime Classics so much that I’m hesitant to say anything negative about the series, but I find it to be very hit or miss. For every delightful forgotten gem, I find one or two duds that just don’t work. I haven’t read either of these yet, but based on your reviews I’ll probably pass them by…
It can definitely be hit and miss, although I also find that I sometimes disagree with others about which ones are the gems and which ones are the duds!
