A Shameless Plug…

1 day ago by desnnochiri

But one that might put a smile on your face. Head on over to Powderburn Flash, and check out my story, “The Wrong Bags.” It came about due to an amalgam of influences: the work of James Ellroy, that old Michelle Pfeiffer / Matthew Modine movie, “Married to the Mob”, and Mob-speak, in general. Hope y ...

Long-lost James Ellroy story found ...

3 days ago by Peter Rozovsky

... in an anthology I'd had for some time without knowing the Ellroy tale, "Gravy Train," was in it. Back in the fall, I was surprised how funny Ellroy was in print and in person. Had I read "Gravy Train" at the time, the humor would not have surprised me. The story, published in Armchair Detective ...

The Mad Bomber of Literature: James Ellroy's Blood's A Rover

4 days ago by The Devil's Accountant

Due to the perniciousness of my hangover I am doing a cut and paste job with links to my review of James Ellroy's Blood's A Rover for the Phoenix and the additional write-up I did on this site back in September. It is an odd argument and I recognize that it may be at times untenable but I yet mainta ...

Book 120. Clandestine, James Ellroy

5 days ago by the Frumious Bandersnatch

Ellroy has been a major blank spot in my crime noir reading. I expected that I would like his work quite a bit. I was surprised to find that I had trouble with the book. The style is nice, so that's a good thing. I found that I struggled through the plot, somehow. I found myself putting the book dow ...

Kreppas, Crisis and Collapse: Chris Smith makes another kind of American movie

9 days ago by Ray Pride

By Ray Pride One of my favorite new words I learned recently was Icelandic: “Kreppa.” Depression, collapse crisis, whatever: the crunchy onomatopoeia of “kreppa” struck Reykjavik last year. Roll the eyes, raise the brow: “Eh, it’s the kreppa.” Nearly the same’s the case with Greece. There were riots ...

9 days ago by Larry Livermore

I apologize for having left this site devoid of new content for so long, but I’ve been devoting most of my energy to what has unexpectedly turned into a pretty big project. I’m talking of course about Spy Rock Memories, the first installment of which appeared here a couple weeks ago. Inspired by a s ...

Alguna vez lo dijimos acá: Missing era el gran libro que Fuguet debía escribir. Y acá está. Una novela en que el autor salda deudas pendientes con sus traumas, con sus dramas, con su historia familiar. También te puede interesar: Crítica: Fuguet/Caicedo

Vaatimattoman James Ellroyn piskuinen omakuva: “Good evening peepers, prowlers, pederasts, panty-sniffers, punks and pimps. I’m James Ellroy, the demon dog, the foul owl with the death growl, the white knight of the far right, and the slick trick with the donkey dick. I’m the author of 16 books, mas ...

Bei Vorablesen.de habe ich schon einmal eine Leseprobe erhalten, die sich richtig spannend entwickelte.
