Product Description
After Serial Crimes and Destination Morgue, this third collection closes - temporarily - the publication of James Elroy's short texts. We know the author's interest in various criminal facts and in particular the cases which make headlines. This obsession is the central theme of the articles and fictions gathered in Tijuana mon amour.
Whether he's chronicling the investigation into the death of a radio presenter's daughter, portraying a famous district attorney, or portraying one of his favourite heroes, the Gazette's inexhaustible editor-in-chief scandalously indiscreet, Elroy loves nothing more than exploring "the jungle of glamor" and bringing back some startling, scabrous, bitter tasting and foul-smelling finds. We will meet there the famous gangster Mickey Cohen, Lana Turner and her lover Johnny Stompanato, Rock Hudson, Frank Sinatra and some figures of actors or other "people" of second class, all fallen in the mud of the scandal to the point that some do not know. 'will not fall under it.
We find with jubilation the characteristic paw of the author of the Black Dahlia in these vitriolic portraits of cops, actors, the underworld and the media. Through these three articles and six short stories, it is the black face of a schizophrenic California that is radiographed with an angry, provocative, brilliant acuity. all fallen in the mud of the scandal to the point that some will not recover.
