BiographyHistory

Autopsy is an imprint of Duffy and Snellgrove. 'In 1994 Duffy and Snellgrove reacted against [... a trend towards more literary pulp fiction] with an ultra-violent crime series [...]designed to "put crime back in the gutter where it belongs". The "Autopsy" novelettes winked at their pulp ancestry by announcing that they were "printed on recycled trees". The series ceased after six titles' (Ian Morrison, Paper Empires, p.259).
