Description
For over fifteen years Curtis Evans has been writing about crime fiction. His credits include his blog "The Passing Tramp," his essays at CrimeReads, two volumes on British Golden Age mysteries, the Edgar-nominated Murder in the Closet on queer crime fiction, plus his many introductions for various publishers including Stark House Press.
This volume collects the best of his essays on the subject of noir and hard-boiled fiction. Here Evans writes about Dashiell Hammett (and the writers he influenced), Raymond Chandler (including his curmudgeonly correspondence), Ross Macdonald (at his best, and worst), Cornell Woolrich (defying the biographical misconceptions), Patricia Highsmith (and the rigged short story competition she lost), Elisabeth Sanxay Holding (her wild family), film noir classics and much, much more.
