Choose another writer in this calendar: by name: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback James M(allahan) Cain (1892-1977) American journalist, screenwriter, and novelist - identified with Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler and others as a central member of hard-boiled school of crime fiction. However, Cain's own opinion was "I belong to no school, hard-boiled or otherwise". Three of Cain's novels - THE POSTMAN ALWAYS RINGS TWICE (1934), DOUBLE INDEMNITY (1936), and MILDRED PIERCE (1941) - were also made into classics of the American screen. His books continued to appear after World War II, but none gained the success of his earlier work. "I make no conscious effort to be tough, or hard-boiled, or grim, or any of the things I am usually called. I merely try to write as the character would write, and I never forget that the average man, from the fields, the streets, the bars, the offices and even the gutters of his country, has acquired a vividness of speech that goes beyond anything I could invent, and that if I stick to this heritage, this logos of the American countryside, I shall attain a maximum of effectiveness with very little effort." (Cain in preface to Double Indemnity James M. Cain was born in Annapolis, as the son of an educator and an opera singer. He studied at Washington College, in Chesterton, Maryland, earning his B.A. at the age of eighteen, and masters in 1917. Cain worked as a clerk, a meat-packer, a singer, and a teacher. During World War I in army service he was the editor of the 79th Division newspaper

Cain REVIEW Rating: 5 (Superb) T he title refers to the double benefit paid by some insurance companies on railroad-related deaths. These accidents were rare in an actuarial sense, but very much in the mind of the public due to recent sensational cases. The insurance industry figured that the PR benefit of offering double indemnity would far outweigh the actual cost of paying double on what few claims were made. Of course, if you get to pick the time and place of accidental death, then you might as well double your pleasure by making sure that the death happens next to a train. Right? Such is the logic employed by Walter Huff, insurance salesman, and his lover, Mrs. Phyllis Nirdlinger, as they take their stab at the perfect murder. It's as difficult to be perfect in murder as in anything else, but Huff and Nirdlinger make a good try at it. Their planning is meticulous, and their execution is pretty fair, given the obstacles. The tough part is the aftermath: the waiting, the stonewall act, the united front.

James M. Cain Gilt als einer der berühmtesten Autoren des amerikanischen »hartgesottenen« Krimis, obwohl er eigentlich nie einen »reinen« Krimi geschrieben hat. Seine Romane kreisen um Liebe und Mord und werden häufig aus der Perspektive des »Verbrechers« geschildert. Man vergleicht ihn zu Recht mit Raymond Chandler und Ross MacDonald, aber auch mit Schriftstellern wie Steinbeck, Hemingway und B. Traven. Thomas Mann, der während seines Aufenthalts in den USA Cain persönlich kennenlernte, schätzte seine Romane sehr und berichtete in den Tagebuchnotizen ausführlich über seine Lektüre des Romans »Serenade«. James M. Cain wurde 1892 in Annapolis, Maryland, geboren. Studium am Washington College, plante Sängerberuf. Im 1. Weltkrieg als Soldat in Frankreich. Bekanntschaft mit H.L. Mencken, der ihn förderte und ermutigte. Zeitweilig auch als Drehbuchautor in Hollywood tätig. Auf der Höhe seines Ruhmes Ende der Vierzigerjahre einer der bekanntesten amerikanischen Schriftsteller.

Cain is best known for his controversial novels: The Postman Always Rings Twice Double Indemnity Mildred Pierce Serenade The Butterfly and Past All Dishonor . The first three novels were made into back-to-back blockbuster movies in the mid-1940s. Cain always considered himself a journalist, a "newspaperman who wrote yarns on the side." Cain had a distinguished 60-year career as a journalist. He began his newspaper career on The Baltimore American in 1917, then worked for The Baltimore Sun before enlisting in the Army in 1918. After the war Cain wrote editorials for The New York Sun The American Mercury The Atlantic Monthly The Nation Vanity Fair McCall's Redbook Liberty , and The Ladies Home Journal . When he was in his eighties he began writing articles for The Washington Post and literally spent his last living hours at his typewriter.

Thriller SISTER SITES ScienceBookGuide.com Troutworks Games ABOUT US FAQ Team Trout Privacy Advertising ... E-mail us The Postman Always Rings Twice James M. Cain REVIEW Rating: 5 (Superb) T his spare, steamy, hard-boiled little book was Cain's first novel, and helped secure both his reputation and his notoriety. Said to have been the inspiration for Camus' The Stranger , it also joins excellent company in having been banned in Boston. In its terseness and amoral perspective, it was highly influential on a generation of crime fiction writers, most notably Jim Thompson. As the novel starts, Frank Chambers drifts into a roadside restaurant, having hitchhiked and stolen rides through much of California. The restaurant is run by a Greek man and his much younger wife. The attraction between Chambers and the wife is instant, and it is also established (partly through a series of ethnic slurs) that her marriage is merely one of convenience. Soon she and Chambers are a team, and see the restauranteur as the only obstacle to their happiness. Some of what follows is predictable, but the detail and cold-bloodedness that Cain brings to the telling are striking. A bonus is the nice courtroom puzzle in the center of the book, which pits Chambers against the wife in a true Prisoner's Dilemma.
