James Cain: The Postman Always Rings Twice

Аннотация к книге "The Postman Always Rings Twice"

First published in 1934, The Postman Always Rings Twice caused a scandal with its explosive mix of violence and sex and immediately became a bestseller.

The torrid story of Frank Chambers, the amoral drifter, Cora, the sullen and brooding wife, and Nick Papadakis, the amiable but inconvenient husband, has become a classic of its kind, and established Cain as a major novelist with a spare and vital prose style and a bleak vision of America.
