A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

PART OF THE ACCLAIMED AKASHIC NOIR SERIES

Literary crime fiction master Tom Franklin curates this volume of stellar noir from the Deep South.

Akashic Books continues its groundbreaking series of original noir anthologies, launched in 2004 with Brooklyn Noir. Each story is set in a distinct neighbourhood or location within the city of the book.

The Mississippi Delta is a region ripe and long overdue for a volume in the Akashic Noir Series. Tom Franklin has assembled a phenomenal collection of stories spread across the state that provide a mesmerising diversity of styles and subject matter. Urban, suburban and rural settings alike unveil new shades of darkness that fall upon the Mississippi's past and present.

Featuring brand-new stories by: Ace Atkins, Tom Franklin, William Boyle, Megan Abbott, Jack Pendarvis, Dominiqua Dickey, Michael Kardos, Jamie Paige, Jimmy Cajoleas, Chris Offutt, Michael Farris Smith, Andrew Paul, Lee Durkee, Robert Busby, John M. Floyd, RaShell R. Smith-Spears and Mary Miller.
