“What’s the old story?

One friend says to another, “I don’t know art, but I know what I like.”

And the friend says, “Yeah, but so do cows.”

I’d taken two terms of art history in college before I took the police entrance exam. I liked art history, but did better on the entrance exam. Katy…schlepped me around to art museums all over the place, so I guess I knew a little bit more about art than the average cow. At least I knew who Pollock and Kandinsky were.”

–Moe Prager, from Innocent Monster

 

In celebration of the release on May 18 of The Hollow Girl, the ninth and final Moe Prager novel, we are revisiting some of the words of wisdom and wit from ex-NYPD cop, wine merchant, and sometime private investigator, Moe Prager. Today’s quote is from Innocent Monster, the sixth book in the series.
