Los Angeles Noir
Los Angeles Noir | Denise Hamilton
4 posts | 2 read | 3 to read
Los Angeles is the birthplace of noir. Maybe it's the overwhelming shadow cast by Hollywood, the blur of artifice and reality, the possibility of shucking off the past like last year's dress and reinventing yoursefl beyond your wildest dreams. Maybe it's the desperation that descends when the dream goes sour, the duplicity behind the beauty, the rot of jungle flowers. Writers like James Cain and Raymond Chandler understood the hope and horror of the City of Angels and used it to masterful effect - now, their ethos is filtered through a 21st century, multicultural lens.

I had no ideas at 5 PM. Three hours later, I had four pairings and could not decide between them. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I started with the songs and backed into books. Hotel California beat out Led Zeppelin‘s Immigrant Song, Creedence Clearwater Revival‘s I Put a Spell on You, and Concrete Blonde‘s Bloodletting simply because I think Los Angeles Noir is my best book fit, but I‘m still waffling. #titlesandtunes #sexdrugsandrocknroll #sexdrugsandrockandroll

#BookMail Pt4 My 2nd purchase in the Noir series after Sydney Noir. The problem with this series is there‘s so many in it! I can already see needing a seperate bookcase📚This collection of short stories has contributions from the likes of Michael Connolly & Neal Pollack among others.

MidnightBookGirl That sounds like a great problem to have! 6y

Found another copy of the book I accidentally left on the plane in #TheLastBookStore for half the price I bought it for in NYC. #bookadventures
