Ep 167 The Seventh
Left burned and cleaned out after the events of The Jugger, Parker is forced to start fresh with a group of six other professional heisters targeting the cash receipts from a big weekend football game. The score itself goes off without a hitch, but a meddling amateur manages to make off with the entire boodle, including Parker's seventh of a cut! One of the legit best books of the entire series, The Seventh boasts some of author Donald Westlake's best precision plotting and most colorful characters. We typically sneer at Parker taking unnecessary risks or making bad decisions, but his bad judgment in this book is so astoundingly lopsided it's fun to just slide along as the floor falls apart beneath him. The Seventh is The Pink Smoke's eighth episode covering Westlake's Parker novels (what?! how did that happen?), and we have a great time discussing both the book and its 1968 film adaptation The Split.

Ep 166 The Authentic Death of Hendry Jones
After struggling to write a novel about the last days of Billy the Kid, travel writer and Mark Twain scholar Charles Neider found his inspiration by heading to the Monterey coast and creating his own version of the "the greatest gunman alive at the time of his death." Published in 1956, The Authentic Death of Hendry Jones is a fictionalized take on the mythologized outlaw, relocating the mesas of New Mexico to the beaches of Ensenada and Punta del diablo and providing a lyrical and haunting prose which ended up inspiring both Marlon Brando's One-Eyed Jacks and Sam Peckinpah's Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid. Despite its almost legendary reputation, Hendry Jones ended up falling into obscurity compared to other lauded 20th century Western novels. If anybody appreciates the influence of an underrated Western book, it's artist/historian David Lambert, who previously talked with us about Richard Brautigan's The Hawkline Monster and Crow Killer by Thorp and Bunker. Lambert returns to the podcast to celebrate the recent republishing of Neider's novel by digging deep into this rich psychological character study and its unique historical and geographical observations, as well as the shockingly faithful screenplay adaptation by Peckinpah and Brando's not-so-faithful screen version.
