hi adam, a favorite of mine in the third person is The Woman
Chaser by Charles Willeford. it is cinematic by design, but i
won't say more about that--get either of the two reissues,
unless you wanna shell out a hundred bucks for an original. i
don't know how many on RA agree, but i get more complicated
pleasures from Willeford than any other noir writer i've
encountered so far. maybe it's because i find his work so
simultaneously horrifying and funny as hell. And i am talking
here about his early works--i am embarassed to say i still
haven't gotten to the hoke mosely series.
