Las Vegas Noir by Jarret Keene
Las Vegas provides the classic sophistication and darkness necessary for a deadly noir story. Stylish, sultry, brimming with ambition and greed, the characters who populate this literary Las Vegas are pushed to the extremes of human experience. From the neon glitter of the Strip to the treacherous views of Red Rock Canyon and Boulder City, from the desperation of Naked City to the racial tensions of the Westside, no other location offers so many different avenues leading to serious trouble.Todd James Pierce, of Orcutt, California, is the author of three prior works, including the Drue Heinz Literary Prize-winning Newsworld. Around seventy periodicals and journals have published his work, including the Harvard Review and the North American Review. He is a literature professor at California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo.
