Lazy Sunday Service

I'm in Dallas for a couple of days en route for Seattle. It is scorching outside (32C, 92F). I've been wandering around the arts district and dropped into the Dallas Art Museum. For the first time, I think I actually 'got' a Mark Rothko piece (right). It's interesting how some artists are instantly recognisable. You can walk into a room full of paintings and straightaway pick out a Rothko, Picasso, Monet, Van Gogh, Hopper, etc., even amongst the emulators. I wonder if the same can be said of crime writing? If you were given a page of writing, would it be possible to instantly name the author?
