Fatal error: Call to undefined function isLitsy() in /var/www/html/inc_magicDB.php on line 425- Stanley Ellin grew up in Brooklyn, went to school and college there, and lived there for most of his life. During the late 1930s, he eked out a living working at a number of jobs, including junior college teacher, magazine salesman, and steelworker. Although he began writing during these years, he was unable to sell his stories and eventually abandoned his literary efforts. In 1937, he married Jeanne Michael, an editor, and they had one child. After a stint in the Army during World War II, Ellin decided to return to writing full-time. He first sold a story to Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine in 1948 -- his most famous work, now a classic, "The Specialty of the House," won the magazine's best fiction award that year. Also in 1948, Simon & Schuster published his first novel, "Dreadful Summit," launching a successful career in which he published another dozen novels and four collections of short stories. Ellin won three Edgar Awards from the Mystery Writers of America. The French translation of his Mirror, Mirror on the Wall (1972) received the 1975 Le Grand Prix de Litterature Policiere. In 1981, he was named Grand Master, the highest honor from the Mystery Writers of America.

Sometimes I attempt to make myself step outside my usual fare and try a genre that I know will only appeal to me if the book is exceptionally written. By picking an Edgar winner, I thought it was increasing my chances, but the truth is detective fiction just isn’t my forte and I wished I had spent the afternoon with the kind of fiction I cannot get enough of.
