Women in Noir Dangerous Dames by Cornell Woolrich | 315.09 KB
English | N/A Pages
Title: Women in Noir: Dangerous Dames
Author: Cornell Woolrich
Year: N/A
Description:
WOMEN IN NOIR is a three-volume collection that features some of the famed crime and suspense writer Cornell Woolrich's most exciting short fiction. These 22 stories are exceptional for the sole reason that they feature and center women, whether as the protagonist or the narrator herself, something not often seen done by Woolrich's contemporaries. Lurking between the lines of these stories is one still more fascinating - that of Woolrich's doomed partnerships with women and the tortured love/hate relationship with his mother. Despite that, or perhaps because of it, you'll find within these volumes some of the most unique and dynamic female characters ever conceived in the crime and suspense genres, many of whom haven't been given life on the printed page in decades.
Dangerous Dames features women no one should mess with, from demure wives with hidden lives to overt femme fatales. They are smooth and cunning. Most of all they are dangerous, and if they don't seem so on the surface, something darker surely lurks beneath. Danger pulses through each of these seven stories:
-Angel Face
-No Kick Coming
-Johnny on the Spot
-One Night in Chicago
-Eyes that Watch You
-Murderess
-The Moon of Montezuma
Cornell George Hopley-Woolrich (1903-1968) is one of America's best crime and suspense writers, and sometimes wrote under the pseudonyms William Irish or George Hopley. He invented and mastered the genre of "pulp-fiction" and wrote hundreds of short stories, novellas and full-length novels. One of his most famous stories was "It Had to be Murder," which was adapted into the classic Alfred Hitchcock film Rear Window in 1954.
