\"\"<\/a>Looking at ‘The Five Great Novels of James M Cain’<\/span><\/strong><\/em> published by PAN as a Picador I checked if PAN had published all five titles separately as I couldn’t remember seeing ‘Mildred Pierce’ <\/span><\/strong><\/em>on the shelf.

I’ve also included the Guild Books edition of ‘The Postman Always Rings Twice’<\/span><\/strong><\/em> as Guild Books was another of Alan Botts companies.
