Synopsis

Akashic Books continues its award-winning series of original noir anthologies, launched in 2004 with Brooklyn Noir. Each book comprises all new stories, each one set in a distinct neighbourhood or location within the respective city. From the introduction by Ariel Gore: The stories in this collection reflect a fundamental truth about this city: history depends on whos telling it. Too often the story of Santa Fe has been told only by the conquerors and the tourism PR firms. In Santa Fe Noir, you will hear the voices of the others: locals and Native people, unemployed veterans and queer transplants, the homeless and the paroled-to-here. When I asked the contributors you'll read in these pages if they had a Santa Fe story to tell, they invariably shrugged and said something to the effect of, 'Oh, I've got a story all right. But it might not fit the image of Santa Fe you're looking for.' I said, 'Try me.' They came back with the stories that never make the glossy tour brochures: the working class and the underground, the decolonised and the ever-haunted; the Santa Fe only we know. Conquered and reconquered, colonised and commodified, Santa Fe understands - from historical genocide to the murders of family members - the intimacy of violence. Includes brand-new stories by: Ana Castillo, Jimmy Santiago Baca, Byron F. Aspaas, Barbara Robidoux, Elizabeth Lee, Ana June, Israel Francisco Haros Lopez, Ariel Gore, Darryl Lorenzo Wellington, Candace Walsh, Hida Viloria, Cornelia Read, Miriam Sagan, James Reich, Kevin Atkinson, Katie Johnson, and Tomas Moniz.
