Alan Furst on my iPhone?

alan_furstI love my new iPhone, but I’m not sure I’m quite ready to use it to read books just yet. Still, several traditional book publishers apparently are banking on this as a new market for their work. A story in Publishers Weekly and other news media says Penguin and Random House are the latest to offer books via iPhone. Among the authors whose work Random House is making available is none other than Alan Furst ’67g, the mystery novelist whom we profiled in the magazine in May-June. His latest book, released right around the time our story appeared, is The Spies of Warsaw.
