The Noir Thriller (Crime Files)
What is literary noir? How do British and American noir thrillers relate to their historical contexts? Lee Horsley’s updated study of the genre, now available in paperback, ranges over hundreds of novels from the hard-boiled fiction of Hammett, Chandler and Cain to the game-players, voyeurs and consumers of contemporary thrillers and future noir.
