Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. 4/5 ( ) Each story relates in some way to an area of the city, an idea that particularly appealed to me, although as it turned out the stories I liked most weren't necessarily the ones set in the areas I knew best. My absolute favourite was Kid's Last Fight by Eddie Muller set in the South of Market district, which is about an ex-boxer rescuing a woman from an attack. I also liked Alejandro Murguia's story The Other Barrio, set in the Mission about arson and unscrupulous property development, and It can Happen by David Corbett (set in Hunters Point, an area I'd not even heard of before reading this - both of these felt quite close to what I traditionally think of as noir in tone. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
This anthology of "genuinely haunting noir fiction" set in the Golden City features new stories by Jim Nisbet, Alejandro Murguía, Michelle Tea and others (Publishers Weekly). Oscar Wilde once quipped that anyone who disappears is said to be seen in in San Francisco. With its famous fog, winding streets, and hazardously steep hills, it is certainly an ideal place for getting lost. It's also an ideal setting for noir fiction. From Fisherman's Warf and The Golden Gate Bridge to The Haight-Ashbury, Chinatown, and Russian Hill, fifteen authors explore the sordid side of the City by the Bay in this sterling collection. San Francisco Noir features brand-new stories by Barry Gifford, Robert Mailer Anderson, Michelle Tea, Peter Plate, Kate Braverman, Domenic Stansberry, David Corbett, Eddie Muller, Alejandro Murguía, Sin Soracco, Alvin Lu, John Longhi, Will Christopher Baer, Jim Nisbet, and David Henry Sterry.
