Fiction
An amoral young tramp. A beautiful, sullen woman with an
inconvenient husband. A problem that has only one grisly
solution--a solution that only creates other problems that
no one can ever solve.
First published in 1934 and
banned in Boston for its explosive mixture of violence and
eroticism, The Postman Always Rings Twice is a
classic of the roman noir. It established James M.
Cain as a major novelist with an unsparing vision of
America's bleak underside, and was acknowledged by Albert
Camus as the model for The Stranger.
