   Extractions: James M. Cain by William Marling James M. Cain Born in 1892 to an Irish family in tidewater Maryland, Cain grew up in an atmosphere that he once described as "feinschmecker Catholicism," meaning that his parents were "gourmets of religious ritual." They attended mass regularly because "the services were mounted in a manner worthy of Ziegfeld." By thirteen, Cain did not believe a word of the "whole mumbo-jumbo, especially the confessional, where I was faking and suddenly knew that the priest knew it." Not surprisingly, Cain's narratives are, at base, "faked confessions." Cain's first home was a faculty duplex (now the Paca-Carroll student dorm) at St. John's College in Annapolis, where his father, who had played football and rowed at Yale, was professor of math and English. Handsome and flamboyant, he overshadowed Cain's mother, a gifted soprano who nurtured the writer's interest in music. While his father rose through the ranks to become vice-president of St. John's, Cain led a bucolic life with his three sisters and brother in the genteel colonial capitol. He skipped several grades and, after the family moved across the Chesapeake Bay to Chestertown, where his father became president of Washington College, he entered that college's prep school at twelve. He entered the College itself at fourteen, "a midget among giants," socially inept but coasting intellectually. He main concern was looking and acting older, styling himself as a pool shark and playing the iconoclast. He edited the college magazine and was class vice-president, but he had no idea what he wanted to do when he graduated at eighteen in 1910.

   Extractions: James M. Cain James M. Cain was born in Annapolis on July 1, 1892. He was raised in Chestertown, Maryland, and graduated from Washington College, where his father was president. After serving in World War I, he returned to Baltimore where he began working as a reporter. He first worked for the Baltimore American and then for the Baltimore Sun until 1923. After a time in New York, Cain moved to Hollywood. There he tried screenwriting, but found greater success when he turned to fiction. His first novel, The Postman Always Rings Twice , was published in 1934 and was a runaway bestseller. Cain returned to Maryland in 1948, settling in Hyattsville. He continued to write and was a familiar figure on the College Park campus. James M. Cain died October 27th, 1977. Cain did not write mysteries or detective fiction; he wrote novels of crime, sex and violence. The majority of Cain's plots follow the same predictable plan: a man falls for a woman, becomes involved in criminal activity with the woman, and is eventually betrayed by the woman. Although predictable, this basic plot line was used to great success, and continues to be serviceable today such as in the Cain-inspired films Body Heat or Blood Simple . Cain's writing style is hard boiled, pared down to essential phrases with terse, almost brutal simplicity.
