Men From Boys
Edited By John Harvey

An anthology of coming of age stories from the masters of crime fiction, selected and edited by John Harvey. Men writing, for the most part, about what it is to be a man. To succeed; to fail. To open one's eyes. What the majority of the pieces in the collection address, some directly, others more tangentially, are issues of self-knowledge, of accepting — or denying — certain responsibilities. What does it mean to be a father? What does it mean to be a son? What does it mean to be a man?

The men: Mark Billingham, Lawrence Block, Andrew Coburn, Michael Connelly, Jeffery Deaver, John Harvey, Reginald Hill, Bill James, Dennis Lehane, Bill Moody, George P. Pelecanos, Peter Robinson, James Sallis, John Straley, Brian Thompson, Don Winslow, and Daniel Woodrell.

Jeff Deaver's story is called "The Poker Lesson."
