The Postman Always Rings Twice - James M. Cain

Descriere

A young vagrant and the sexy, bored wife of a restaurant owner plan to murder her husband, with unexpected results. One of the master works of hard-boiled detective fiction now reformatted for a much broader audience. nAn amoral young tramp. A beautiful, sullen woman with an inconvenient husband. A problem that has only one grisly solution--a solution that only creates other problems that no one can ever solve. nFirst published in 1934 and banned in Boston for its explosive mixture of violence and eroticism, The Postman Always Rings Twice is a classic of the roman noir. It established James M. Cain as a major novelist with an unsparing vision of America's bleak underside, and was acknowledged by Albert Camus as the model for The Stranger.n
