In response to Mario Taobada--
I see plenty of "the atmosphere typical of noir" in Chapter 5
of "Lot
49" . . . Oedipa's paranoid peregrinations among the
down-and-outers of
San Francisco. I take it you would put this somewhere
else
genretically--please elaborate.
Would you agree that "the atmosphere" pervades the works of
certain
postmodern (or New Wave) songwriters such as Stanard Ridgway
and Elvis
Costello?
