Bernie Rhodenbarr is the burglar turned antiquarian bookseller who always seems to get himself into the middle of trouble. This time his troubles are bad. He's about to lose his bookstore because the new landlord is increasing his rent to over 12 times what he currently pays. But Bernie wants to keep the store. He considers burgling an apartment, but decides not to and, of course, the apartment owner discovers his priceless baseball card collection missing after a night out at the theater.
Lawrence Block is a master of the mystery, and I do enjoy this lighter series more than the gritty Matthew Scudder series. Lawrence Block never disappoints. This guy writes in a variety of genres under various names. The few he has that are more or less a spoof of the Nero Wolfe books are also very fu. In this This was a reread. His main lines of work are the hard-boiled Matt Scudder detective novels (literary, serious, violent) and the flip side-the Bernie Rhodenbarr "burglar" series (light-hearted, funny, ingenious. Both series are equally good-beautifully worked out plots that surprise and (in the case of "burglar") delight, memorable characters, literary resonance.

Bernie Rhodenbarr is actually trying to earn an honest living. Or he can shuffle all the cards himself and try to find the joker in the deck - someone, perhaps, who believes that homicide is the real Great American Pastime. It's been an entire year since he's entered anyone's abode illegally to help himself to their valuables. But now an unscrupulous landlord's threat to increase Bernie's rent by 1,000% is driving the bookseller and reformed burglar back to a life of crime - though, in all fairness, it's a very short trip.
I like Lawrence Block. He writes light-hearted noir fiction, mostly set in NYC, which he obviously loves. My books are like water; those of the great geniuses are wine. Fortunately everybody drinks water. More bug fixes - Book & Member Stats.
