The Postman Always Rings Twice (Crime Masterworks) - Softcover
Book 4 of 7: Vintage Crime/Black Lizard Anniversary Edition
Synopsis
First published in 1934, The Postman Always Rings Twice caused a scandal with its explosive mix of violence and sex, and immediately became a bestseller. The torrid story of Frank Chambers, the amoral drifter, Cora, the sullen and brooding wife, and Nick Papadakis, the amiable but inconvenient husband, has become a classic of its kind, and established Cain as a major novelist with a spare and vital prose style and a bleak vision of America.
