Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A classic California noir with a feminist twist, this prescient 1947 novel exposed misogyny in post-World War II American society, making it far ahead of its time.Los Angeles in the late 1940s is a city of promise and prosperity, but not for former fighter pilot Dix Steele. To his mind nothing has come close to matching that feeling of power and exhilaration and freedom that came with loneness in the sky. He prowls the foggy city nightbus stops and stretches of darkened beaches and movie houses just emptying outseeking solitary young women. His funds are running out and his frustrations are growing. Where is the good life he was promised? Why does he always get a raw deal? Then he hooks up with his old Air Corps buddy Brub, now working for the LAPD, who just happens to be on the trail of the strangler whos been terrorizing the women of the city for months. Written with controlled elegance, Dorothy B. Hughess tense novel is at once an early indictment of a truly toxic masculinity and a twisty page-turner with a surprisingly feminist resolution. A classic of golden age noir, In a Lonely Place also inspired Nicholas Rays 1950 film of the same name, starring Humphrey Bogart.
