S P A C E L I G H T Return to Alphabetical Listing VITAL STATISTICS Name: KERSH, Gerald Aged: Born: August 26, 1911 Where: Teddington-on-Thames, ENGLAND Died: November 5, 1968 Where: Middletown, New York SS#: 128-32-0695 NY Interred: Cremated Married#1: When: Married#2: When: Married#3: Florence Sochis When: Awarded: Gerald Kersh "Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron." Kersh was a strange mixture for a writer; part fantasy, part mystery/horror, and a large part social critic and activist. And just as strangely, Kersh was a very popular writer, with the number of books in print hampered by the paper shortage. He became a novelist in the 1930s with the publication of Men are so Ardent , 1936, and his third book, Night and the City , 1938, made him famous (becoming a movie with Richard Widmark and Gene Tierney). Another of Kersh's stories "The Extraordinarily Horrible Dummy" was filmed in 1945 as Dead of Night When WW II imposed itself, Kersh became a member of the Coldstream Guard, having both of his legs broken by a German bomb that landed nearby in a London street. Recovering, and pushing for the fight, Kersh ended up in France, seeking out and helping relatives when he could, but finding that some had been sent to concentration camps, never to be seen again. An earlier fling into wrestling served him well, as Kersh was something of a barroom brawler. He enjoyed tearing telephone books in two, opening beer bottles with his fingernails, and bending dimes with his teeth. Kirsh was also given to staying up all night drinking and playing poker, then cleaning himself up and continuing the next day without sleep.

Faces in a Dusty Picture Review Summary The year is 1940 or '41, the place is Cairo and the surrounding desert. Rommel is on the march, and the British are trying to decide whether to attack or retreat. This slim "slice o' life," written only a year or two after the scenario it evokes, shows what it was like to be in the British army from the general to the privates, from a Lieutenant whose father's passing has just made him a lord to a venal quartermaster as panic rises and the battle commences. The utterly omniscient narration moves from one consciousness to the next, including Italian and German generals, as men prepare to face war and death. Kersh impressively recreates the tortuous march through the desert, the dreamlike death of an aviator, various battlefield fatalities sudden and slow, and countless other details. David Loftus, Resident Gerald Kersh Scholar

Nachts in der Stadt - Kersh, Gerald - 3929010801 [London, Geschichte][ Romane/Erzähl.] Maas Nachts in der Stadt Kersh, Gerald Maas Kersh, Gerald: Nachts in der Stadt [London, Geschichte][ Romane/Erzähl.] Gerald Kersh wurde hierzulande von den Publikumsverlagen weitesgehend ignoriert und geriet in Vergessenheit, doch bekannte zeitgenössische Autoren wie Joe R. Lansdale, Andrew Vachss oder Harlan Ellison bezeichnen ihn als ihren 'favourite writer bar none'. Nachts im London der 30er Jahre: zwielichtige Clubs, Nutten, Trinker und verlorene Seelen. Unter ihnen Harry Fabian, ein aus dem Cockney Slum stammender mieser, kleiner Zuhälter, der die naive Zoe auf den Strich schickt und vom großen Geld träumt. Gemeinsam mit dem windigen Geschäftemacher Figler will Fabian zum Top-Wrestling-Promoter in London aufsteigen. Skrupellos versucht er durch Erpressung und Betrug an das Startkapital zu kommen. Das Animiermädchen Helen träumt vom eigenen Nachtclub, der wenig erfolgreiche Künstler Adam will seine kreative Krise als Kellner überbrücken. Sie alle begegnen sich irgendwann auf einer nicht enden wollenden Odyssee durch die Nacht. 'Nachts in der Stadt' ist ein Großstadtklassiker, der bereits zwei Mal verfilmt wurde. 1950 spielte Richard Widmark die Rolle des Harry Fabian in Jules Dassins gleichnamigen Noir-Klassiker, Robert De Niro übernahm diesen Part 1992 in Irvin Winklers Remake. Für Pulp Master bedeutet es ein Privileg, den Briten Gerald Kersh vorstellen zu können, der seinerzeit mit Dickens und Hemingway verglichen wurde und als Autor den Film Noir wie kein Zweiter inspiriert hat.Gerald Kersh wurde 1911 in London geboren und starb 1968 mittellos in New York. Steuernachzahlungen, chronische Krankheiten und persönliche Schicksalsschläge beendeten seinen kometenhaften Aufstieg, der durch einige Bestseller eingeleitet worden war.
