Blood's A Rover James Ellroy

James Ellroy"s L.A. Quartet novels chronicled a cynic"s take on Los Angeles cops and robbers, carving a dark and creepy nook for the author in the world of crime fiction. With Blood"s a Rover, Ellroy completes his Underworld USA trilogy, an epic reinvention of American history, politics, and corruption. This book comes out firing: Ellroy"s hipster prose - inimitable for its high style and spectacular energy - snaps and surges through more than 600 pages like black electricity, shocking the gentle reader from page one. Opening with a heist scene rendered as coldly violent as anything from Sam Peckinpah"s most sociopathic fantasies, the story hurls itself across an improbable crazy quilt plot, including Howard Hughes"s Vegas power-play, political abuses and machinations in Hoover"s FBI, and the mob"s ubiquitous shadow, darkening everything from JFK"s assassination to Nixon"s 1968 Presidential campaign. Another audacious effort from a one-of-a-kind talent, Blood"s a Rover is thrilling and exhausting, a gloriously guilty pleasure. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге Blood's A Rover (James Ellroy)
