A good story for reader and reader's daughter
You know a story is good when someone who isn't even reading it asks how it is turning out.
"DEATH IN THE YOSHIWARA" is the only CORNELL WOOLRICH story set in a land that has always fascinated me -- JAPAN.
The story first appeared in the Jan. 29, 1938 issue of ARGOSY (pictured).
An American sailor (and wannabe detective) is enjoying a night of saki in Tokyo's (in)famous Yoshiwara district when a blonde with a blood-splattered dress stumbles into his room, desperately seeking a sanctuary because authorities suspect her of a murder she insists she didn't commit.
I'm enjoying this story, and so is my 10-year-old daughter ANNIKA.
She keeps asking for plot updates as I make my way through this story filled with action and plot twists.
I find it amusing that the Argosy editors chose the Western yarn "Golden Acres" by Luke Short as the cover story for the Jan. 29, 1938 issue. Even an author the stature of Edgar Rice Burroughs found himself relegated to the back pages.
