Description:
Laura Lippman introduces
23 dames, femmes fatales, avenging angels, broads, molls and dolls from the
golden age of pulp fiction and the dawn of modern crime writing.
From Sally the Sleuth
to The Girl Who Knew Too Much, these women knew how to steal a guy’s
heart – or his gun – and they weren’t afraid to use their fists if their charms
couldn’t get them what they wanted. Risking their lives and ending others,
these dames are certain to set your heart racing, whether you’re a pulp novice
or a hard-boiled fan.
With stories from
Raymond Chandler, Cornell Woolrich and Dashiell Hammett, and a strip cartoon
from Adolphe Barreau, Pulp Fiction: The Dames shows that some writing
has an edge that time just can’t dull.
