The Forward has its review of Missing a Beat. The reviewer, novelist Joshua Cohen (no relation), seems to be part of a Seymour Krim sleeper cell.
Cohen wrote,
“The mere presence of this book makes me happy, let alone Mark Cohen’s sympathetic editing and introductions. Krim has been out of print for too long.”
Also,
“I should say, then, despite his very regular imbecility, his love of his own failure and failure to love himself, that I love Seymour Krim. I want to hug him and kiss him wetly on the fish lips.”
And I was about to say that I like Seymour Krim as much as the next guy.
