Tijuana Straits : Kem Nunn [Fiction Book]

Tijuana Straits : Kem Nunn [Fiction Book]



Price: £12.99 / Euro17.03


In his magnificent Tijuana Straits, Kem Nunn picks up where Chandler and Ellroy left off - in the middle of the line that divides good and evil and life and death. Nunn gets the characters dead right and this third installment of his California trilogy brings together the crazies, ecologies and politics that makes Tijuana Straits a book that is Chinatown meets Amores Perros.

There is a special intensity to the dust and metal fence that divide ways of life and the Mexico-U.S. border. Fahey and Dakota are real figments of the border imagination that Numm creates in this ode to California noir. Just as Dogtown and Z-Boys is the film companion to Tapping the Source, the Tijuana Straights is the updated companion to Chinatown - setting the tone for understanding how a place becomes a toxic stew of crime, immorality, and decadence.

ISBN: 0684843056 ~ Softback - 306 pages Fiction
