A classic California noir with a feminist twist, this prescient 1947 novel exposed misogyny in post-World War II American society, making it far ahead of its time.
A classic of golden age noir, In a Lonely Place also inspired Nicholas Ray\'s 1950 film of the same name, starring Humphrey Bogart..
Hughes\'s tense novel is at once an early indictment of a truly toxic masculinity and a twisty page-turner with a surprisingly feminist resolution.
Written with controlled elegance, Dorothy B.
Where is the good life he was promised? Why does he always get a raw deal? Then he hooks up with his old Air Corps buddy Brub, now working for the LAPD, who just happens to be on the trail of the strangler who\'s been terrorizing the women of the city for months...
His funds are running out and his frustrations are growing.
He prowls the foggy city night---bus stops and stretches of darkened beaches and movie houses just emptying out--seeking solitary young women.
To his mind nothing has come close to matching that feeling of power and exhilaration and freedom that came with loneness in the sky.

A classic California noir with a feminist twist, this prescient 1947 novel exposed misogyny in post-World War II American society, making it far ahead of its time
