description: The Easiest Thing in the World is a riveting collection of stories, film treatments, plays, and two never-before-published novellas—the titular work and Slowly Now the Dancer. This is the prose we've come to expect from Higgins: tough tales of corruption and revenge, wrapped in a meticulously informal dialogue that is astoundingly familiar in its tenor yet emanating from a part of town most would rather not visit. This is an indispensable addition to not only the Higgins library but also to the canon of American crime fiction.
