Cain, Jeff Stone (Editor) ISBN: 0679723250 Compare price for this book Horror Authors A-Z Caine Geoffrey Editorial Review from Amazon Postman Always Rings Twice - Book Review, by James M. Cain, Jeff Stone (Editor) Amazon.com Penzler Pick, April 2000: It is sometimes easy to trace a literary genre to its source, and James M. Cain's first novel, The Postman Always Rings Twice, is the noir novel that paved the way for all the noir fiction that followed. The famous film starring Lana Turner and John Garfield is notoriously dark, but the novel is even more full of despair and devoid of hope. It is a short booklittle more than a novellabut its searing characterization and depiction of tawdry greed and lust is branded into every reader's memory. Frank Chambers, a drifter, is dropped from the back of a truck at a rundown rural diner. When he spots Cora, the owner's wife, he instantly decides to stay. The sexy young woman, married to Nick, a violent and thuggish boor, is equally attracted to the younger man and sees him as her way out of her hopeless, boring life. They begin a clandestine affair and plot to kill Nick, beginning their own journey toward destruction. Horace McCoy, David Goodis, Jim Thompson, and the other notable noir writers never achieved Cain's spare brilliance. Virtually all of his major works have been filmed, though several Hollywood studios refused to make the films, directors refused to be involved, and actors turned down roles because of their repugnance at the lack of morality inherent in all Cain's characters. Reading him may not be fit for a Sunday school class, but once you begin you will be unable to resist continuing, like picking at a painful scab or watching a tarantula inside a glass dome.

The Postman Always Rings Twice by James M. Cain First read: 1/2002 Reviewed on: 2/7/2002 Rating: Click here to buy it Scale: I did not like it. I liked it. I thought it one of the Best Novels of All Time ...so I get out my book list, to decide what book to read next, when I noticed this book on it. What a happy moment! Why? Because I read it last month, not knowing it was on the list. Here follows the tale of how I came to pick up The Postman Always Rings Twice : Once upon a time, I was staying at my friend Joe's house, and I wound up reading his copy of Shoot the Piano Player (or Down There ) by David Goodis. I was amazed. Not only was it the best book I ever read, it wasn't even a close call. I sent a copy to my stepfather, with a note "This is the best book I've ever read." My mother picked it up, read the first page, and then sat down and read it all. She called me a week later, to ask why I thought it was the "best book I've ever read," since she didn't think it was Great. I asked her when the last time was that she sat down and read an entire novel, start to finish. She said, "It has been years." I asked her if she's been thinking about the characters at least once a day in the week since she'd read it. She said, "Come to think of it, I have." I asked her when the last time was that she called me up just to discuss a novel she had read. She answered "Never" which was true. And that pretty much answered her question.
