Descriere magazin:
My mom went to Berkeley in the 60s (my main tangential claim to hippiedom), so I\'m psyched to see her favorite town get the Akashic noir treatment. San Francisco\'s hippie silo has long captured the imagination of artists and writers, and I can\'t wait to read the many stories in this collection, including new works from cult faves such Barry Gifford, Aya de Leon, Summer Brenner, and more. --CrimeReads, included in CrimeReads\' Most Anticipated Crime Books of 2020This volume proves yet again that noir is discoverable anywhere there are human beings--in this case, a quirky university town on the east side of San Francisco Bay...Another fine entry in a series for the ages. --New York Journal of BooksEach story evokes the dark side of a Berkeley neighborhood and pays tribute both to the city\'s history as a haven for outcasts and as a literary metropolis. If you race through it, consider picking up San Francisco Noir and Oakland Noir. --Diablo Magazine, a Top Ticket choiceBerkeley, California: home of a world-class university with a parking lot for Nobel laureates, politically active and correct, volatile, and, yes, a bit seedy, too, if you know where to look. The stories in Akashic\'s latest noir anthology expose the underbelly of this lovely city...All get their just rewards eventually, and readers will be entertained as they find out how it happens. --BooklistReaders will be glad that many of these tales are fun in a way that traditional noir isn\'t. --Publishers WeeklySixteen new stories reveal the darker side of friendly, funky Berkeley. --Kirkus Reviews A] quietly compelling short story collection. --Exclusive MagazineAkashic Books continues its award-winning series of original noir anthologies, launched in 2004 with Brooklyn Noir.

Curet, Summer Brenner, Michael David Lukas, Aya de Le n, and Owen Hill.From the introduction: A town named after a British philosopher doesn\'t exactly evoke visions of Goodis or Highsmith. Grifters? Dames? Cops? In Berkeley? On the surface the alleys don\'t seem that dark, until we look a little closer. Possibly the most iconic visual image of Berkeley does involve cops. It\'s the fil
