Noches en Hollywood
James Ellroy
Synopsis "Noches en Hollywood"
Por el autor de los superventas L. A. Confidential y La Dalia Negra. A la deriva en el brumoso Hollywood de los cincuenta, Dick Contino, un acordeonista practicamente acabado, trata de dar un empujon a su carrera perpetrando un secuestro perfecto: el suyo propio. La historia de Contino abre este fantastico libro compuesto por seis relatos ambientados entre 1947 y 1959. Es el Los Angeles de los cincuenta, una ciudad poblada por policias, criminales, prostitutas, estafadores, cazatalentos en busca de estrellas, rateros, comunistas ocultos y chivatos que traen a la mente peliculas en blanco y negro y amarillistas gacetas de sucesos. / Dig it. A famous musician-cum-draft dodger is plotting the perfect celebrity snatchhis own. An ex-con raging on revenge in High Darktown becomes a cop's worst nightmare. While chasing kidnappers, two cops stumble on an okie town as bloody as the O.K. Corral. A strongarm for Howard Hughes and mobster Mickey Cohen finds himself playing both ends against the middle, all for a murderously magnificent moll. This is L.A., Ellroy stylecorrupt cops, goons with guns, rattling roadstersand all in the staccato rhythm of the streets. Hollywood Nocturnes shows us the seedy side of glamorous Hollywood, laid out like a corpse in the morgue.
