    Dear crime writer,Article continues after advertisementNeed to breathe a little life into the bloated corpse of your narrative?

This August marks the 10 year anniversary of the publication of the original version of Kanye West—Reanimator. In light of all that's going on, is it time the book went out of print? Be honest.
