I love me some really good noir. This is really good noir. But I will say, man, Cain's view of human nature is dark, Dark, DARK.

But his writing is tight. I love it.

Listened to an audiobook version of this narrated by Stanley Tucci. It was awesome, highly recommend

سبک، خوشخوان، درگیرکننده و جذاب بود. کاملا میشد وارد فضای قرن بیستی.، جنایی و نوآر داستان شد و در کنارش از شخصیت‌پردازی و ذهنیات و طرز فکر اول شخص لذت برد.
