( ) Yes, I'm giving this book a full 5 star review. This is nothing literary or though provoking, but it's pure entertainment and I was entertained. It has all the whores, drugs, murder, and shitbags you can get in a 1950's set crime noir book. Los Angeles, Walt Disney, and Veronica Lake look-a-like prostitutes. I've only seen the movie to this, so I can't judge the other books pat of the L.A. Quartet. I can say if you watched the movie, you should be able to read this book without any issues. I'd like to read the other books now to see if there are any connections and why this is a series. SPOILER TIME!: (For people who watched the movie and read the book.) The only complaint I have are the newspaper clippings sections. They are very much needed in the book, but a the same time they make things confusing for the readers. It goes back and forth with a narrative style to a newspaper style. I do like Ellroys writing style for the crime genre. If this wasn't crime, I think I'd get annoyed with the writing. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
