Title: Too bad its now a movie
Review: As book three of James Elroy's "L.A. Quartet' I didn't know quite what to expect. What I found was a pleasant surprise, while this book is not the craziest of the four, The Big Nowhere wins that one, or the riveting, probably The Black Dahlia. It is the most satisfying. This time among the craziness and murder and rape and brutality, all three main characters undergo interesting and gratisfying transitions and don't get killed off. A good synopsis is to say that the fucking insanity that we love from Ellroy is still there but more structured this time.
Is the review positive or negative?
