Cain by Roy Hoopes

I never knew a writer who regarded writing] as anything but a refined form of crucifixion.--James M. Cain

Although Cain was formerly dismissed as merely a hardboiled writer, his finest works--The Postman Always Rings Twice, Mildred Pierce, and Double Indemnity--arenow considered enduring classics of American literature.

In this book Roy Hoopes gives as full a picture of the man and his life as will ever be written. The work was awarded an Edgar by the Mystery Writers of America.

Roy Hoopes spent some of the war years at home and some in the South Pacific. A career journalist and award-winning biographer, he has written many books including When the Stars Went to War: Hollywood and World War II and the recent novel, Our Man in Washington.
