When the doorbell rings while Nero Wolfe and I are at dinner, in the old brownstone house on West Thirty-fifth Street, ordinarily it is left to Fritz to answer it. But that evening I went myself, knowing that Fritz was in no mood to handle a caller, no matter who it was.

All of the Nero Wolfe books are good reads. Timothy Hutton did a excellent job with the series that was on A&E a few years ago back. Maury Chaykin is now the picture I have in my head of Nero Wolfe.
ReplyDeleteGloria,
ReplyDeleteI completely missed the Timothy Hutton series. Thanks for bringing that to my attention!
