The Noir ThrillerThis book is written by British academic, Lee Horsley, and published by Palgrave. Although it's an academic book, the selection I read is easy to understand and interesting for anyone who reads noir. She just added a chapter on 21st century noir, which includes lots of the people we are reading today.

Sounds like an interesting book. Wasn't there an actor named Lee Horsley?
ReplyDeleteSame thing I said. This is a woman apparently.
ReplyDeleteIt's a top book. Haven't read the new one though.
ReplyDeleteIs this novels and shorts, or film, or both? I can't quite tell.
ReplyDeleteThe chapter I read was strictly novels.
ReplyDeleteI ordered THE NOIR THRILLER but it's expensive for a trade paperback.
ReplyDeleteI think it's because it's an academic press. Palgrave published my husband's last book, too, and look at the price of it. http://us.macmillan.com/accidentalpresidents
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about cost, but that does sound like an interesting book...
ReplyDeletePatti, your husband's book looks interesting, but the price is shocking. They might have done a little more with the cover, too...
