For those that are fans of the late David Goodis, some fans have organised a special event taking place in January, 2013 at Philly.
It all began as a grave side tribute but interest has grown and fans come together celebrate the work of this noir writer on a special bus journey.
Goodis is admired by pre4sent-day crime writers such as Ken Bruen. Part of the interest is undoubted influence on dark, ambivalent noir films in Hollywood in the 50s and later in Europe.
