I only read three of his books and I can already say that James Ellroy is the greatest noir writer living.
-
@killwill83 I'd love to have him as a friend!

This is the man
He speaks for the ghosts of Hollywood Noir
I happen to sing for them.
Thank God you are there James
I don't feel so alone

This guy is the scariest motherfucker in American letters. He could incinerate Norman Mailer with a single stare. I love him for it.
-
What I don't get is how Ellroy's mother' murder when he was 10 yrs old 'bethrothed' him to a life of 'crime and twisted sexuality in a heartbeat.' Why? It sounds to me like an escapist rant by a charismatic orator, always unchallenged on the audience/ tv promo circuit.

Wow. Call him bonkers all you want. But Ellroy's L.A. is my L.A. as well.
He nailed it: "woman-haunted".
His voice is warped, twisted and unsettling but totally true to both himself and the place.
I enjoy reading him.
