The Book, Cat, & Cat Book Lovers Almanac

of historical trivia regarding books, cats, and other animals. Actually this blog has evolved so that it is described better as a blog about cats in history and culture. And we take as a theme the advice of Aldous Huxley: If you want to be a writer, get some cats. Don't forget to see the archived articles linked at the bottom of the page.

April 13, 1943

Bill Pronzini (April 13, 1943) is an American writer, of books about detectives, as well as a writer in other genres such as westerns. The guy is very prolific, and he sometimes collaborates with his wife, Marcia Muller, also a writer. Multiple websites have undertaken to list his books. Which is helpful, but I don't see a mention of his short story collected in Cat Crimes I (1991), a tale titled "Bedeviled: A 'Nameless Detective' story." "Bedeviled" involves a woman who thinks her dead husband is haunting her, and poisoning the cat. The fiction of both Pronzini and his wife has won awards.
