Re: RARA-AVIS: Unreliable narrator

Where unreliable narrators work in noir is where the protagonist is not only lying not only to the reader but to themselves. No one did this better than Jim Thompson with Frank "Dolly" Dillon of Hell of a Woman and Carl Bigelow of "Savage Night" as great examples of this.
