Across five studio albums with Art Garfunkel (1964-1970) and fourteen solo albums (1965-2018), Paul Simon's music and lyrics have inspired generations of listeners. For <i>Paranoia Blues</i>, nineteen masters of contemporary short crime fiction wrote new stories, each inspired by one of Simon's songs: one from each of the five Simon and Garfunkel studio albums (plus a bonus second story inspired by a song from <i>Bridge Over Troubled Water</i>) and one from each of the fourteen solo studio albums. <br><br>The contributors include award-winners E.A. Aymar, Martin Edwards, Cheryl A. Head, Edwin Hill, Tom Mead, Raquel V. Reyes, Gabriel Valjan, and a dozen more-plus the first new story by Robert Edward Eckels in more than forty years! <br><br>This is the fifth "inspired by" anthology edited by Josh Pachter, a recent winner of the Short Mystery Fiction Society's Golden Derringer Award for Lifetime Achievement; the previous books drew on the music of Jimmy Buffett, Billy Joel, and Joni Mitchell-and the films of the Marx Brothers.
