A short noirish novel written in the 1920's that takes place in Paris and it's about a pimp, prostitute and her borther - how can one go wrong with this book?
I know very little about the author Francis Carco, but I can feel another "obsession" in my bones, and I will surely hunt down everything possible about his work. The translator is the well-known novelist Jean Rhys.

Wow, this looks great! How do you ever find this stuff???
My bookcase is endless. And this is a fantastic novel.
I just to my site an interview with Gilbert Alter-Gilbert, the translator of Green Integer's Carco book.
I hope I can find this one! Who knew.
