Descriere magazin:
His books are all action, unfolding with a laconic efficiency that would make his killers proud.--The EconomistBusinessman Georges Gerfaut witnesses a murder--and is pursued by the killers. His conventional life knocked off the rails, Gerfaut turns the tables and sets out to track down his pursuers. Along the way, he learns a thing or two about himself. . . . Manchette--masterful stylist, ironist, and social critic--limns the cramped lives of professionals in a neoconservative world.Manchette has appropriated and subverted the classic thriller with] descriptions of undiluted action, violence and suspense and] a perspective on evil, a disenchanted world of manipulation and fury. . . .--Times Literary SupplementThe petty exigencies of the classic thriller find themselves summarily reduced to cremains by the fiery blue jets of Jean-Patrick Manchette\'s concision, intelligence, tension, and style.--Jim Nisbet, author of Lethal Injection and Prelude to a ScreamManchette is a must for the reading lists of all noir fans. . . .

Grim and cerebral as they feel, it\'s remarkable how comic--in an absurdist, laugh-or-you\'ll-cry way--these books are, as if Manchette had decided that poking fun at the products of the capitalist system were the fittest way to attack the system itself.--Jennifer Howard, Boston ReviewThe pace is fast, the action sequences are superb, and the effect is just as striking as it must have been when the book was first publi
